Alienoid

I like the movie, even though at the beginning and the middle it was shown 2 different timelines and made me confused, but in the end it was explained too. I like the male and female (i forgot their names) acting, the one who has a mirror. And part 2 will air next year. Can't wait.

The must see movie of this genre is Fyodor Bondachuk's 2017 Russian movie, Attraction. It's on many streaming platforms. The 2022 Korean Alienoid seems inspired by Attraction. What Alienoid has going for it is very good on-set morale; it's fun. Its verve, snappy dialogue, committed acting and stunts and lots of creative scenes make it watchable TV.

The VFX are stellar. The middle part of Alienoid is a Terminator vs. Terminator battle in a city with impeccable post-production values. There's also a Mission Impossible stunt reference.

As with many foreign sci-fi and fantasy movies, even with very committed acting as you have here, a series of action scenes strung together, does not add up to a blockbuster. To really pop, the characters have to have an arc of development which fuels their passion.

I am usually not a fan of these kind of fantasy movies. This movie combines all sorts of genres, but it does it in a quite entertaining and creative way.

The story: alien monsters invading the earth must be fought. Lots (LOTS) of fighting follows...

The good: there are some pretty spectacular action scenes in the middle part of this movie, around 1 hour into the movie.

The bad: this movie lasts (WAY) too long. Almost 2 and a half hour and most of it is talking scenes, which isnt terrible, but there is simply too much different characters talking to each other. I lost count.

More bad: the story is all over the place, which isnt terrible, but doesnt help either in understanding who is fighting who and for what reason.

In the end this is quite an entertaining spectacle, with some flaws though...

If you are a person who couldn't sit still for more than 2 hours, this might not be your cup of tea! But if you could, all the acts, comedies, sceneries, CGIs, and story-lines won't dissapoint you. I got sceptical at first, but more than satisfied at the end of the movie. I suggest to watch it in the cinema (especially 4D) so you'll have more remarkable experience. Can't wait for Alienoid Part 2!

Storylines of Past-Present-Future robot, alien, human bla bla . Actually the director didn't miss anything,put everything into this and made linsey-woolsey. There weren't anything that seems to me interesting rather felt like clumsy. Why do the director had to put all these concept together? I really wanted to like and to enjoy it because of it's casts . I was kind of eagerly waiting for this movie to release. And now that I watched it, I'm having huge disappointment.

Literally bored me badly, sometimes made me confused . However, watched it for 2 hours + but won't recommend this to anyone :)
