Best alien invasion film ever made. Bar none. Just brilliant. 😛

I've had to rest my eyes by typing on here

Are these lyrics from something? 🙂

talkin about his remake of let the right one in

*cries*

I managed to watch about 2-minutes before deciding there was no way I was watching the rest.

My missus saw this at the flicks and had a bad nut for a day or two afterwards

I really enjoyed it, good popcorn movie..

Great film. Slow start but very entertaining. I don't normally like the bouncy camare view but it seemed to work on this

I like it

I thought it was a really good film, only problem is it never really ended or gave us any answers, well i didn't get any ethier that or i missed it all! its supposed to be a trilogy so lets see what comes next.

This was on tv a few weeks ago. I was vaguely aware of the hype but out of the country when it came out so missed any discussions.

I thought it was good, but it seemed to be much more of a traditional monster flick than I was expecting. I wasn't expecting to see the monster, but when you did it was more doctor who than some wierd multidimensional head-fek type situation as per the original Solaris. Not a bad film, but maybe not quite matching up to the hype.

The battery on the video recorder lasted a lot longer than mine ever did, and there were a few too many times when you thought if you were in that position, you would run like the wind and not video, but then I can't wheelie either, as per current survey on the home page.

they're getting an awful lot of mobile phone reception even in tunnels

It was by the same people who ruined Star Trek

Shaky camera work and a threadbare teen script does not a good film make.

Predator 2 on after. Shame its not the first one though. "Ged to da chappah"

I've been known to repeat "I'm gonna have me some fun… I'm gonna have me some fun…" on long, Welsh climbs.

Saw it a few month ago on DVD. Thought it worked but was expecting something else to happen after the end. Really thought I had just watched the first part as it was so short!!

I quote enjoyed it, bought an ex-rental copy for a couple of quid a few weeks back. Put it on and the shaky camera thing did my nut in for a little while but then got into it.

Nice to have a non fluffy ending for a change.

I've often thought all you need to get away from a monster, when faced with teeth crushing horrible death, is a good wheelie.

I've never had the opportunity to put my theory to the test though.

hot chicks, monsters and explosions
what's not to like?

everyone dies

there you go you don't need to watch it (it's rubbish)

The thing about the end is that the video camera seemed to survive a nuke on New York, or am I wrong?

it never really ended or gave us any answers

Best things about it. It was just inexplicable stuff happening, like what was the deal with the exploding people?

Justice is served the monster f00kin' ate him annoying ****t 😆

Just the sd card.

84 mins of my life I will never get back. glad I only paid £3 from Asda for it! everybody raved about it when it came out. I fail to see the hype!

Fully enjoyed that.

The only good bit for me was when that girl gets bitten and her head explodes! or was she shot by the army guys when they drag her away??

Hard work to watch, made easier by the fact that the 2 lead ladies were frickin' stunners

Now then, who saw the alien splash land into the Atlantic at the end of the film?
It's clearly shown over the left hand shoulder of the 2 main characters as they ride the Wonder Wheel at Coney Island; this video footage is actually at the start of their camera but at the very end of the film & it just helps to add some contact to the events.

Contact = context

I've never been so glad to see all the main characters die 🙂

Saw it in the movies when it first came out – it was hard work to watch because of the constant camera shake. I got the impression that people had fairly extreme reactions to it – they either really liked it, or they hated it.

I thought it worked quite well as a novel take on the monster movie genre – rather than seeing things from the perspective of the all knowing scientists who see the big picture, you get a sense of the experience of the little guys who get randomly stomped in Godzilla. In that context, the various events that weren't fully explained seemed a legitimate device to add to the overall sense of confusion.

Felt like one of those films that could have been up there with the best………

…….but it failed spectacularly on most counts (sets, camera work, acting etc)

There's no excuse with modern technology for sets to look so blatantly 'movie-company-warehouse-set'

It wasn't a love or hate film for me, I'm kind of indifferent to it, to be honest. However, I was very glad to see some proper monster and not some arty-farty shadows!

One word = Shite.

👿

gave me motion sickness after about 20mins, i had to watch it in instalments.

i hate wobble-cam, it ruins many otherwise-good films.

If you want an interesting take on alien invasion: District 9!

That is about as good a scifi film as I have ever seen!

I liked Cloverfield but was disappointed with District 9, how weird am I?
