Surprisingly incoherent and boring
If you like to be scared, if you like to laugh, and if you like to learn a thing or two at the movies, this absolutely cannot be missed.
It is an exhilarating, distressing, funny and profound film, with one of the more memorable film scores in years,
This is one of the best movies I’ve seen in a very long time. You have to go and see this on the big screen.
Overall an average film, CGI is a bit scretchy in certain places but the suspense within the film makes up for it. The ending will leave you wanting just a bit more of an explanation.
Its beyond my understanding how this film have a 3.9 rating. We live in a strange world,indeed. Dont be fooled by this rating, the movie is absolutely great. ..................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................

I am very much fond of Ridley scott's Alien and also james cameron's Aliens. But now i really hate these alien ideas as there are many real bad films have been made on Alien. This movie is the latest addition to this. The story is not too bad but the acting as well as the alien scenes are horribly maintained. No real drama or excitement in it. Rather you will find it boring just about 30 minutes after the start. Same old concepts of Alien invasion in the earth with those nasty Alien killing projects. I suggest better to avoid the movie. It has no new joy or excitement to offer you. Alien fans will be disappoint if they watch this.
For a plot summary please look at the start of the page.Film feel: The exposition and and main part of the movie is eerily similar to the likes of Moon and Oblivion. But in contrast, this film drags on much more because there is no funny dialog or a subplot. The dominant grey-blue colour palette doesn't help either. The film wants to showcase the monotonous and boring routine of the main character but takes it too far and bores the viewer.The film tries to have a twist ending but is to simple to really pull it off. The story is so bland that one can count the possible endings on two fingers.If you're a cynic (like me) then you will like the ending. More would be spoiler.Exposition: 1/10 (if you have seen Oblivion and/or Moon you can skip it) Main Part: 1/10 (too bland and simple) Ending: 6/10 (good ending for cynics; I couldn't stop grinning)TLDR: if this was a 20 min short film it might have been good. Like this it drags on for 90% of the run time.
