This movie was action from start to end. Unfortunately, that's all it is. If you like big explosions and bullets/lasers flying around everywhere and lots of Marine 'hoorahs' then this movie is for you. Otherwise, if you want a movie that has some sort of sensical plot or reasoning, then you may want to pass on it. There are soooo many good 1 hour television shows that can be watched at a significantly less cost of the $11 (or $13 if you see it in craptastic 3D) it took to see this in theatres. Wait for it to rent on BluRay and you'll enjoy it much better at home where you can hit the Stop button anytime you want.

I found the 1st documentary style somewhat annoying and at times they seem to be shaking the camera a lot more than necessary. The script was transparent and the characters somewhat unbelievable. Special effects were good though again the camera shaking is NOT a special effect and only takes away what I was hoping would be at least great special effects. Like a poor attempt to combine District 9 and Cloverfield, without their redeeming features.

wicked good movie...I like the style used, very gritty and in your face camera work. The aliens are not immediately viewed but they are nasty. Story line somewhat predictable but at least they gave the characters a chance to establish their identities. Outstanding special effects, lots of action and the Marines are well portrayed led by Aaron Eckhart and company. Overall a good take on the alien invasion movie.
