Director: Jonathan Liebesman
My Rating: 3/5
I'd been avoiding this movie. The idea of it is pretty cliche and generally follows the "Alien Invasion" blueprint. Meteorites begin falling from the sky in what appears at first to be a meteor shower, luckily for us (the viewer), the meteorites turn out to be aliens attacking Earth. "Whatever though, I like those kinds of movies" I thought to myself, so I decided to watch it.
The film follows Michael Nantz (Aaron Eckhart), a retired staff Sargent with the Marines. Well, he's retired for about 15 minutes before being called back into action to help fight the aliens, bummer for him. War....is fucking crazy. I don't even know really, but I'm scared to death of it. The addition of aliens into that makes it even more horrifying.
It's not as bad as I thought it'd be, Eckhart does a good job and the music is pretty cool. The camera shakes a little but too much for me. The ending is pretty shitty but overall not a bad movie.
