In the not too distant future a new team of specially trained government soldiers called an Interception Team contend with the latest hostile alien encounter. When an alien scout ship crashes in eastern Russia, Sean Lambert and his elite force are dispatched to investigate. They come face-to-face with a seemingly invincible seven-foot tall, shape shifting foe hell-bent on blowing up a Russian nuclear power plant in an effort to destroy mankind through a nuclear winter. The stakes become personal when the alien discovers it was Lambert who killed its mate four years ago (Interceptor Force). A major battle ensues as the Interceptor Team look to save the Earth from alien annihilation.

Very Cool!!!
It is not deep, but it is fun to watch. It does have a bit more of an edge to it than other similar films.
The film makes a home in your brain and the only cure is to see it again.
Not sure how, but this is easily one of the best movies all summer. Multiple levels of funny, never takes itself seriously, super colorful, and creative.
This wasn't too bad. At least the action moves along even if motivated by gratuitous violence. I didn't have to fast forward through ennui saturated sequences at all. There's always enough shooting and (unnecessary) hand-to-hand to keep one's attention. I thought the CGI was more than adequate, and the morphing really well done, although the frequency of occurrence didn't seem necessary.As for the cast, well what can you say. Gruner is *not* the next Van Damme. He may be no more (nor less) talented, but he's not nearly as pretty. And the chicks weren't all that hot either, but I did like Miss Wilkenson's role and and I guess she's kinda cute.The plot is a plethora of clichés, but what the Hey. I view these Sci Fi Channel scripts as parking spots for writer wannabes. If these guys were any good, they'd have real jobs for real studios, writing scripts for real movies. For instance, perhaps some aspiring nuclear engineer can help explain why a dozen or so barrels/kegs (?) of HCl would be stored in a nuclear power station? Given this stuff will dissolve/react with nearly everything except glass, stomach lining and gold, one can be assured the screen writers majored in neither engineering nor chemistry.
this really isn't a good movie , even considering the low standards of Olivier Gruner and the fact that this is a B film. it's still not worth watching. This movie makes itself hard to be taken seriously with the over-the-top looking guns and the non-existent romance between Olivier Gruner and Adrienne Wilkinson , wow we totally say like two things to each other throughout the whole movie so that means that we have some sort of deep bond at the end. Even though this is a sci-fi this movie lacks a lot of realism, one example of this is when a man wearing a protective suit enters a nuclear power plant then our hero's enter with no form of protective clothing at all, there is also a whole bunch of other small mistakes too many to write. another thing i didn't like about this film was the plot , this movie doesn't know what direction it's heading at first your think it's about a shape-shifting alien hell-bent on revenge then halfway through the film we have some nuclear bombs or something. Anyhow the plot is really lame.3 stars
The Interception team is once again on a mission to wipe out an alien life form. The last time, Lambert (Olivier Gruner) was the only one left alive in his team. The new alien have wiped out a millitary base in Russia and captured a nuclear reactor. The reactor houses the worst kind of uranium you can imagine. An explosion could effect the whole world. Lambert and his new team head to Russia.Interceptor Force 2 (also titled Alpha Force) is a pretty good movie. But there are some stuff that makes you annoyed, like the alien's abilities, the same as T-1000 in Terminator 2, shape shifting and if it explode it floats back together.The shape shifting I dont mind that much this time, those are pretty good with nice effects. Unlike the first movie Gruner sometimes actually fights with the alien form and not a human everytime they make contact.The action and fight scenes are good, so are the most of the special effects, and that is a must to make this movie work, because the Alien is all CGI.Olivier Gruner seems to work in the right direction again thinking of his lates very poor movies Cracker Jack 3, GOD and Deadly Engagement to name a few. He is to good to be cast in those kind of movies. Together with Olivier, Roger R. Cross makes a strong performance.I give it 5/10
I will have to say that the CGI effect of the alien changing was good. This seemed to be accomplished very seamlessly. Other than that, I think a group of high school students could have made a better movie. The 'acting' was pathetic, and the death scene of the Russian soldier was laughable. Can it be a spoiler to say that it took him almost 15 seconds of screaming "ARGH" as he slowly crumpled to the ground - almost as a parody of good acting.Actually, if you approach this as a comedy, it's almost watchable. As a science fiction movie, it takes itself way too seriously. Maybe spending money to make movies like this is why the studios never show a profit on the good movies.
