I thought it was sort - of OK up until the point where Night revealed that the alien invaders could be defeated by throwing water on them, a plot device so idiotic that even Ed Wood would have rejected it. I guess Night doesn't know that our atmosphere contains substantial amounts of water. Having the aliens saunter about unprotected from the water in the air is equivalent to having humans walk around naked on a planet with a sulphuric acid atmosphere like that on Venus. It's astoundingly stupid, in other words. I was also bothered that no one in the movie seemed to give a moment's consideration to wondering if the aliens were benign. And the whole religious sub - theme struck me as contrived too.
