Something to get behind

Rating: 8/10 (30 July 1998)

This movie boasts great fx and action sequences. The problem does lie with stereotypical characters. However the scenario of fighting back the apocalypse is something we can all root for. Even those who didn't like it must have had a slight feeling of pride while beating back the aliens. The actors were at the very least charismatic and charming, even if they were underdeveloped. Bottom line, this movie is great fun and holds up after repeated viewings.
