Lame alien thriller

Rating: Null/10 (11 February 2003)

I like aliens. I like thrillers. I like Mel Gibson (sometimes). I even like tender tales of men who have lost faith. But ramming all that together into a single movie makes for a muttled and often boring mess.

What killed this movie is the laughable aliens. These morons flew 90 light years to ransack our houses? Riiiiight.
The acting is fair, the tension is fair, the ending is flaky, the aliens are a joke, the whole story is of dubious interest.
Nevertheless, I will admit there are some pretty spooky moments. I was a bit freaked out from some scenes.
Its worth a DVD rental, but try to use a coupon and get this one free.
