I was totally surprised at how great this film.You could feel your paranoia rise as the film went on and as you gradually learned the details of the real situation.

One of the best movies of the year! Incredible from the beginning to the end.

This movie tries so hard to be funny, yet it falls flat every time. Just another example of recycled ideas repackaged with women in an attempt to appeal to a certain audience.

.Like the great film, it's made with a great deal of visible affection both in front of and behind the camera.

I'll try not to include any direct spoilers.This is an odd film that tries to mash too much together. There's a dead parent. There's the threat of war. There's the survivor parent who was never there. There are men in black. There is something that comes from space.There are decent effects, the editing is fine, the acting is acceptable.All of this is put in a blender and poured out in the hopes that it will be a tasty sci-fi smoothie, but in reality we are served a nutritionally complete, but somewhat bland, paste.The mood shots are overly drawn out, the scripting is average, and the acting feels forced at times to try and deliver emotion and message when it's just not needed.There are so many great sci-fi books deserving of being turned into movies. This is a sci-fi movie that was trying to be book. At best it is a short story that has been stretched into a novel and suffers as a result.Lastly, I am not sure why this film is rated R. It is an M or M+ at worst. There is some coarse language, physical violence, and gun violence. There are scenes of war and the outcomes of war but these are actually realistic and only the most sensitive teens wouldn't be able to handle it. There is no sex, nudity, or innuendo.

I just watched this movie with some friends and was blown away by how good it was! It is quite literally one of the best movies that I've seen.I loved the cinematography and the foreboding sound effects. Those two elements along with the compelling story line, well thought out characters, acting and script, make this movie really great.This movie is a slow burn, and it simmers to make a tense and dramatic and action- packed thriller. It's like a soup that takes a while to cook but ends up tasting better because it cooks at a low simmer.I want to say "Awesome job to everyone involved with this film." This movie is a lot better than some of the 100-million-dollar and higher movies that I've seen that use the same A-list actors but have terrible plots and don't give us a reason to care about the characters.In this movie, I was given a reason to care about all the characters.Excellent movie all the way around. Highly recommend.

Putting aside the ridiculous portrayal of disabled veterans (all they're good for is getting into bar fights for no reason), this film fails first because it makes no real sense. We're told that an object that falls from outer space and has magical properties and stuff is considered so unimportant that it can't get or keep research funding from the US government, which will generally fund any research involving a political connection. Yet agents of the government are so determined to seize the second one that falls, that citizens suspected of having it are beaten and shot at when they refuse to give it up. Is it important or not? But even if you're willing to overlook such things, the pacing is so slow as to make the viewer wonder if he's made a mistake renting or streaming it. And I'm not talking about a lack of action - I'm talking about the pace. Dialogue is so slow, and dramatic pauses are so long, and the plot is so glacial, that it's difficult to keep interested. Especially when the film completely failed to make us care about the characters - at all.

This movie is a gift. After watching multimillonaries films. This has everything. Action, suspense, and a sci-fi touch. From the start, you don't know what will hapen. It's a matter of time, and until the end, you won't know the true. The actors did well. Of course, the actors aren't soo famous. That's why is underrated. But the acting is well done. The family don't inmerse in an ouwful drama. The issue keeps around a mysterious artifact. It is for good or for bad? Many answers. But instead other sci-fi movies all the questions will be answerd. The visual effects are credible, you notice they worked very hard. And the actors did a great job, even they don't requires a great acting. You won't loose your time. Give it a chance.
