An untold chapter in the Mass Effect saga, following the early career of Alliance Marine, James Vega, as he leads a squad of elite special forces into battle against a mysterious alien threat known as The Collectors. Stationed at a colony in a remote star system, Vega and his troops must protect the inhabitants from an invasion of the deadly insectoid warriors determined to collect the population for unknown purposes. Soon after the attack, Vega's commanding officer falls in battle, forcing the young officer to embrace the responsibility of leadership for the colony's survival. Having idolized Earth's greatest hero and warrior, Commander Shepard (the central character in the Mass Effect video games), the young and idealistic Vega must now make life and the death decisions that will effect not only the lives of his squad, but the lives of every person in the colony - all of whom he has sworn to protect...

**Not Good** Don't watch this before playing ME3, watch it after, and only if you're bored.\ \ Even then it's not good - it wasn't set well, brings nothing new, rehashes elements from the games, and generally spoils some plots of the game. It also was not anything like James Vega, nor the collectors from the video games. It also had a very bad and forced sad ending.\ \ You would be better off skipping this film entirely and playing the video games again. It really brings nothing new to the table, and ultimately is a waste of time.\ \ As a result this film cannot be recommended because it was a big chore to watch.
