One HUGE plot hole from outer space

Rating: 4/10 (11 April 2018)

There are already enough reviews here to point out how bad the story of this movie is. One plot hole after another, I'm still coming up with some five hours later. There is just one more thing to add. The father displays such ingenuity - why hasn't he come up with an effective defense system and a strategy to go on the offensive against these creatures? During the movie you see that the family is growing large quantities of crops. If they have the ability to do that then they must have close access to the materials to build a fortification and a weapons system to defeat them. Oh, and here is one more plot hole I can't resist telling about. How in the world did they harvest all that corn in the grain silo without making any noise and there is a field full of growing corn as well. And why would you spend so much time and effort "silently" growing enough corn to feed a small town for a year for a family of four? Okay, yeah I get it, the movie is tense and thrilling in ways, but that is only because the characters are reckless, careless, and just plain dumb. If that is what it takes to make a horror film these days then I refuse to suspend disbelief for 1.5 hours. The director has to do his part too.
