Fun to watch, leaves too many loose ends

Rating: 7/10 (24 February 2016)

It isn't difficult to connect the details to know how the movie ends, but it is a little hard to specifically understand the ending. At no point was there any reasoning about why these children were chosen, what the aliens wanted, why these tragedies were listed along with the end of the world, and why the trailer was listed in the coordinates. With that being said, it overall was an enjoyable movie to watch. It was very intense, and difficult to watch scenes where Nicolas Cage's character would attempt to help the disaster victims, only for him to fail. It was both depressing and refreshing to watch his character simply accept his fate at the end, since most of the movie was watching him frantically try to understand what was going on and if there was a way to stop it.
