Likely not so likely

The age-old first contact question: what if/when there is first contact?
If you're an Independence Day type of person, then this movie is not for you. It will bore you to death. Even if you're an X-Files type of person, this movie is not for you. In fact, you'll be screaming for a refund at the end, if not half-way through.
"We will need your help in 3000 years" my backside. Now here is a bunch of aliens, who can see the future but come to earth to teach humanity alien lingo so humanity can save the exact same aliens in 3000 years time? All of this without leaving co-ordinates or blueprints for a spaceship. How the hell is humanity supposed to find this alien planet or get there for that matter without co-ordinates and a spaceship? We can't even get to Mars and back. At least humanity speaks alien lingo now and there is world peace. Wow. Seriously?!
The script-writers should be sent to the north pole as punishment for this nonsense. They can take Dan Brown with them.
However, if you're curious about a slightly different take on first contact with aliens, then best wait for the DVD and watch it right after watching a full season of 80's episodes of Star Trek.
