Killer movie, until the end

Rating: 5/10 (25 March 2009)

If you don't know already, the second paragraph does contain spoilers.
The movie was very intense and somewhat frightening. I had high hopes for this movie and I was very impressed throughout the entire movie. It was one of the best movies I had ever seen.
But then comes the end. OK, so if the world was going to blow up in the end and the two kids were already chosen to go with the aliens, what was the purpose of the numbers and the "people" following them around the whole time? I understand that it made the movie more disturbing and dramatic, but it was completely unnecessary. And the whole thing with aliens? Come on. That was completely ridiculous. And what made that worse, was that the ending of them getting ready to go and them leaving in the spaceship was like 10-20 minutes long. It was stupid and boring. And then like just knowing that the scary people were harmless aliens kinda made me mad. I think it would have been a lot better if it didn't end with the whole alien idea.
Overall, the movie was definitely worth watching, but if you are expecting a good ending, don't count on it.
