... View MoreFunny, strange, confrontational and subversive, this is one of the most interesting experiences you'll have at the cinema this year.
... View MoreThe acting in this movie is really good.
... View MoreIn a word, fun. This movie is not deep or meant to make you think - but its completely enjoyable. The supporting cast is surprisingly good - especially Elizabeth Gracen and Adrienne Wilkinson. They both rose to the challenge - and surpassed the writing they were given. The special effects were better than I expected, given the lower budget - and the outdoor scenes were quite beautiful - filmed in Eastern Europe somewhere. I would recommend it to people just looking for a good time. Check out the DVD for out takes and some hilarious special features.
... View MoreAt one point, one of the American "Interceptor Force" officers asks a Russian officer "What are you going to do, shoot me?" The Russian, in a wery, wery bad accent, replies, "No, I'm not goink to shoot you."What a sadistic guy! He could have saved that poor character the entire rest of the movie if he had just shot him right then and there.And after you watch this movie, you'll wish he had shot you too.Your only hope of surviving this movie is to warm up your best possible MST3K impression right from the first frame; otherwise, you are beink doomed!
... View MoreAll the mistakes of the first film multiplied by two. Subtract Brad Dourif. And add an unwelcomed (not to mentioned incredibly predictable) conspiracy involving (gasp) the Russians! Don't make it obvious you guys read the Cold War edition of the `12 Step Plan to Writing Scripts' handbook . . . that's IF2.The alien is female this time around (Species III?) whee! It takes on a human female form frequently for a Tomb Raider/Charlie's Angel/tough girl approach? Can I get a yawn for yet another gimmick?Part of me wants to call it on being inconsistent with its predecessor in that the alien no longer seems to be able to exist biologically and as energy simultaneously . . . but frankly I don't care enough to verify that tidbit by watching the first film again. This film feels even more childish than its predecessor. The plot honestly feels like two kids in the first grade talking about an alien: Kid 1 - `Well, I'm gonna use my ultra-magneto-super-duper-ray-gun! That'll kill it!' Kid 2 - `Nuh-uh! My alien is immune to that! You can't kill it!'And so the characters prove yet again that the thing is bullet proof. For all the gunfire and fights, there isn't a lick of intensity to the entire movie. Making a creature that can't be killed comes across as a whiny brat who makes up excuses for the damn thing to survive, and that is not intense.If you know of two kids under age ten who like to one-up each other when they play war, watch them instead of this. It has to be more entertaining and less irritating.
... View MoreThis was a great movie for me because it had 2 of my favorite actresses. Elizabeth Gracen is wonderful, and did a good job in this movie. Her swimming scene near the end was really cool. Adrienne Wilkinson did well with a subdued role as a scientist, and still managed to show who she is. She was real cute at the end, when she got sexy, then embarrassed. The other main actors were good also. I'll probably watch it again.
