"Great special effects" does not equal "great movie"

Rating: 4/10 (2 March 2008)

OK, so you think you are going to see some "realistic" great movie...and in reality it was a real disappointment! 25% of the of the movie was an introduction of superficial background, nothing to interestingly funny, or even mattered in a movie like this. Then we get to the action: a few good parts, great special effects, but the cameraman, although realistic, is NOT picking up the ACTION! He is looking at the ground and at everything BUT the aliens. Lastly, the characters have to be some of the most emotional and stupid people on the planet! When it comes to survival you have to get back to the basics: food, water, shelter, and of course, PROTECTION (in the form of weapons or some sort). These fools didn't do as much as pick up a stick let alone find some guns. In conclusion, if you like realism, stupidity, and a bad plot, then THIS is your movie. If you are someone that wants something 'special' when watching a flick, stay AWAY from this one.
