Rating: Null/10 (26 August 2002)

SPOILERS!! Warning about Spoilers!! You have been warned.
I thought this was a very thought provoking movie. People who don't like to think much, or are not in the mood for thinking, no this movie isn't for those people.
many people are complaining about how the Aliens can be so easily defeated by water... so what if that's kind of stupid. The point was the fact that there are really no such thing as coinsidences. The little girl with the aversion to "Contamitated water" the fact that she can't drink water she things is bad and leaves cup after cup after cup is not a mere coinsidence. There is a greater reason for her doing so, even is she herself doesn't know it.
This was NOT a movie about aliens. This was not the sixth sense. This is a movie about a fall from grace, and the finding of your faith once again. Why did they use the alien scifi pretence... would half as many people have seen it if it were a drama like steel magnolias or the divine secrets of the ya ya sisterhood? Probably not.
The only thing that did annoy me was that there wasn't an explination of how the aliens were defeated... I guess I would have liked to have known, but since that wasn't really what the movie was all about, it really doesn't matter all that much.
I give it a 4 out of 5 stars.
Besides... even if you don't like the movie or the plot, and if you're not a thinker, J. Pheniox and M Gibson prove once again that genious actors still exist.
