You won't be disappointed!
... View MoreSelf-important, over-dramatic, uninspired.
... View MoreGreat movie. Not sure what people expected but I found it highly entertaining.
... View MoreOne of the film's great tricks is that, for a time, you think it will go down a rabbit hole of unrealistic glorification.
... View MoreHow on earth did they manage to make such an awesome film with these great visual effects on such a small budget? The film is fascinating! From beginning to end, there really never is a dull moment, and very unpredictable, too. This was just freakin' awesome!! The ending was a bit weird, but all good, though.
... View MoreI saw this when it came out, and i was just truly and utterly shocked by how amazingly bad it was. I can hardly remember the details of it after all these years (thank god), but i remember very well what made the movie fail so gloriously- the premise of the story (only revealed at the ending) is just remarkably idiotic, the movie is very drawn out and repetitive, all taking place in or on that stupid apartment building, the CGI is.... "eh", the design of the alien crafts is completely generic and without imagination, and their whole alien apocalypse thing just feels very labored, drawn out, uninspired and dumb.. really felt like an amateur movie, me and my friends were just amazed by how bad it was and while we were leaving the cinema we just had to tell any stranger coming in and passing by us to NOT GO SEE SKYLINE, just for the chance of saving another soul from wasting money and suffering through this awful crappy movie... I'm sorry for the producers but i really REALLY hated this film..
... View MoreThis movie is in my top 3 of the WORST "heroes" ever.Rarely have I watched a movie where ALL the main characters are such a bunch of stereotyped stupid, whiny, obnoxious, bickering, self-centered jerks.This KILLED the movie for me. The characters are so insufferable that it's painful to watch. In fact, you're relieved when they die/are abducted! In addition to that, the script was none too good, and the ending was stupid (total Deus ex machina, so lazy!).Too bad, because as a B-movie (I really like those), despite -or because of- the outrageous main idea, it could have been funny, but in the end, it's not. What a waste.I'm giving it a 3 because the effect were good, but I think I'm being generous here.
... View MoreI watched this one back in 2010 on a crappy old TV and I loved it, while others continued to bash this movie.... So watched it again last year, on a better 55" and with a skyline 1080P resource instead of the crappy DVD + CRT combination back then.Anyway, I loved it again and just because it's not a typically Hollywood, action hero movie, it's is rated so low by many. I cannot think of something else. If you have some common sense, this movie is just way better dan the too high rated movies like Battleship, Battle LA, that movie with that guy Tom Cruise (2005).. all with real action heroes, kicking aliens arses.. Aliens who are able to travel the distances, land on earth, sucking up resources and people like we stamp on ants.. But on the end are just kicked in the arse by some real time action hero with a battleship from 1942, or whatever.. No way.. Skyline should have been rated with at leat 8 stars, because it is a true SciFi how it should be. Realistic and ends up pretty bad, but open. This movie got me right away when the blue light visitors came to hunt. No talking, no communication, just destruction of humans is what they want. The world would end at that moment aliens like them would visit us. No chance, just hands down on your knees and let it come... Skyline 2 should be next, but I think the makers are afraid because Movies are mostly watched by braindead sheeple.. Give me a break and shout it out for skyline2.. But on the other hand, skyline 2 has no further meanings, humanity is gone and all we have is an Alien worker with brains of an human survivor trying to protect is wife and offspring. And should be overrun anyway.. So we all know how it will end up... Well done and hands down for the makers.. be a thinker, not a follower.. This one is one of my top 5 scifi movie all times.
