A well worth watch...

Rating: 8/10 (1 July 2005)

Going to this film was slightly scary. I had no idea what it was going to be about. The trailers simply mention that "They're already here" and that kind've uninformative nonsense. I sat in one of my favourite seats in the cinema and had to wade through approximately 15 minutes of advertisements. The film is slightly confusing in the beginning. Finding out about main character's situations is simply guesswork. Then you're plunged into a world of alien controlled devices which somehow managed to get underground a million years ago before mankind when they couldn't actually attack earth? The aliens apparently are allergic to the micro-organisms of the planet which, I suppose were there millions of years back... Why did they not die then? Made me wonder. There are only two scenes in the film where the devious plotting aliens actually appear. And after that they die because of immunodeficiency. Just shows how powerful humans are doesn't it? By the way... Did anyone prefer the red landscape to our usually bland green? I wonder if there are any products for dying the front lawn...
