Well, what are we looking for here?

Rating: Null/10 (16 August 2002)

From a scientific viewpoint the film makes no sense. The character development is where the effort seemed to focus in this film.
The acting of Mel Gibson was a good attempt along with the cast but they really can't lift this film from just plain poor writing.
First, these aliens are allergic to water and should steer clear of it. They manage to get through the Kuiper belt just outside of our solar system without hitting any water out there. Yet, there's enough water there to drown the earth fifty times over with all those comets coming and going.
Then, of all places, they choose to land on a planet with 75% water all over it.
Worst of all, they decide to feed on people, who contain a higher
percentage of water than the earth....
Well, at least I liked the company I brought to the show and the restaurant we ate at afterward has great food! Give it a zero.
