So I am not one to write reviews whatsoever. I am simply a 16 year old boy who purely watches movies for entertainment because I am a movie lover and don't not like to nitpick the hell out of a movie . So reading some reviews of this one, as I so often check reviews before I decided to watch a film just to get a general idea of the opinions of others, I was expecting it to be rather bad . And God am I glad I went ahead and viewed the film . I love creature features, and when I watch them, I get that some people like the suspense of not seeing the creature and for everything to be subtle and what not . But I'm kind of sick of seeing that and this film was literally just what I wanted in an alien film, FINALLY . It wasn't really a slow-burner . I mean it took about what, 20 minutes to get started but after that it was on a roll . Needless to say I enjoyed the hell out of this movie, like a lot .
So let's hit some points here . The acting was, I feel, pretty decent collectively . There were some moments I was like "okay... we'll let that go" but overall nothing that broke the immersion from the film . One of my absolute favorite parts was the musical score . Yes it's cliché as hell and has probably been done in millions of movies out there, but since I was so engrossed with this film, every time something alien-esque happened and the intense soundtrack would kick in, it sucked me in even more . I loved it . The special effects I thought were rather nice . My sister and I were saying how it seemed like a lot of fun working on set with all the flashing lights and crazy goo and just, it seemed like a blast .
Again, am I in no way a qualified critic . I am no JeremyJahns . But I do highly suggest that, although reviews can reflect a films quality, that's not always the case . So glad I took a chance with this one, I wasn't disappointed . I was looking for some horror alien abduction fun, in a genre where that's quite difficult to find and I got it . I highly enjoyed this film, and if your looking for just a fun alien time where your willing to accept the loopholes that may be blatantly or present, I would recommend this .
