A simple-minded ET film

Rating: 5/10 (22 November 2014)

I don't know how this film got this rating in IMDb. Characters motivations are unreasonable, and scientific basis is really poor. A 3% carbon dioxide atmosphere is not that toxic. In crowded spaces it can reach this level, and is the lack of oxygen that disturb our bodies in these circumstances, and not of CO2. The biological weapon the aliens developed make no sense at all, bombing us would have been a lot easier and less dangerous. As the aliens don't speak, this film should be some kind of thriller, but the scenes fail to evocate this emotion on us. In sum, visuals are good, but the story is poor And the characters fail to immerse us in the atmosphere of the movie
