Better than Valium

Rating: 1/10 (29 May 1999)

After an ok opening the absurdity and snail pacing of this US flagwaver had me dozing off. The effects seemed more suited to a video game, and the schmaltzy scenes attempting to underscore the "humanness" of the characters should have been cut ruthlessly. And how come the aliens are always slimy as well as bent on destroying the world? Not an original idea in the whole stinker.
