Just fun

Rating: Null/10 (4 December 2002)

I really enjoy watching this movie from time to time. My movie collection is weighed down with the classic movies, the complex movies, dramas, etc. But every now and again, when I just want something light and entertaining, this is one that I reach for. I will agree that if you try and watch it for something more than pure mind-numbing entertainment you are going to be sorely dissapointed. This is no 6th Sense, by any means. The dialogue is weak, the plot is thin at best, and cliche at worst. No hard-core sci-fi fan should ever watch this, unless they sign an afidavit to withhold all critique (yes, I know what havoc would be wreaked if there was suddenly a second moon in orbit around the Earth). This is one of those movies that you watch after a particularly hellish day at work, or right after the last day of finals, etc.
And besides, who doesn't enjoy watching a half-naked Milla Jovovich kick alien ass?
