I always enjoy a sci fi film with an open ending, the famous last scene that raises questions. A winning tradition that is not forgotten here.
There were a few forced scenes to drive the story, at my theatre a few laughs were generated when the lead character , of course, went exploring in the only dark space alien hole within miles, and it didn't go real well, of course.
I enjoyed the movie, so much so I got over my grudge whenever Natalie Portman , a prototype tiny little actor , is cast as an action lead bad ass. I'll take story over super hero punch outs every time.
My condolences to the guy who can't handle women as actors. Gives me a reason to count my blessings, plus , having seen the movie, I get the explanation that he never will. There were more subtle touches than howling blunders, I thought it a good space invader movie, and as a fan of the genre, I have seen some real stupid stuff, and still enjoyed the shows. This is not one of those.It could be a movie about pro creation instead of annihilation, some characters have a lot of drive.
