Invasion Roswell

Looks like a school project, hhe whole going is xhocking, the dialogue, thee acting, the special effects and the guns they use, which are supposedly better than normal weapons look like they were designed and made by Matel.

The story is just a straight rip.off from Independence Day, the alien weapons are exactly the same and a roswell toy aircraft is supposedly from the same species only years ago. God that is so original. Just to give you an idea of the differences between ID and this in ID thevdoace ships sre city size and blow up the white House and the Empire state, here they're house size a blow up a wooden house.

How this didn't get clobbered for copywrite ill never know.

Another SyFy Channel movie to grace the screen, but unfortunately this one doesn't extinguish itself from the rest of the bunch. And it is essentially a very predictable Sci-Fi movie.

The story is about a group of middle aged, retired soldiers saving planet earth from aliens! A unit of extraterrestrial special operatives are sent into retirement, but have to don their uniforms and weapons one last time as aliens return to Earth to invade the planet for some unknown reason.

And as it is with these kind of movies, then you know the ending right from the very beginning. And true enough, the movie does not let down the audience on this account.

"Invasion Roswell" suffered badly from a predictable storyline and bad CGI effects, which essentially was the killer of the enjoyment for the movie, as the acting done by the people on the cast list was actually good enough - but they just had very little to work with.

It should be said that the alien suits were actually looking nice, although it sort of took the entire alien being away from the movie as they wore helmets and we only got to see one alien while it was undergoing an autopsy.

When we are first introduced to the alien weapons, I nearly spilled my drink. The weapons looked so much like those toy guns you can get for the PlayStation 3 Move controllers - into which you put the controller and wield the combined two pieces like an actual "weapon". It was hilarious.

"Invasion Roswell" might actually have something to offer to the audience that enjoy cheesy, campy and generic Sci-Fi movies. This is not a million-dollar Hollywood CGI-fest, so don't get your hopes up. For me, despite its predictability and cheesiness, then "Invasion Roswell" gets a 3 out of 10 rating - there is just something bizarrely entertaining about these campy movies.

Not completely terrible. The best aspect is the acting which is reasonably good, especially from Greg Evigan and Denise Crosby. Their general professionalism however deserved a much better movie. The photography, editing and the way it's shot is hardly incompetent though their quality's not particularly note-worthy. The special effects is a good starting point to why Invasion Roswell is not a good movie, at best they're laughable and unfinished-looking. And let's not get started on the alien weapons, I do agree that they look like children's toys. The story is not involving at all, that it's so predictable that you can smell the ending a mile away is one thing but there's also very little fun, suspenseful or thrilling on display, there are moments but they are too far and between. The dialogue is painfully under-written and trite, the direction is completely flat and the characters are little more than ciphers that don't do much of a good job moving the story forward. The aliens are not much of a threat, very lacking in personality and presence. Overall, not terrible or a disaster but dull and pretty poor, the acting is pretty much the only good thing about it. 3/10 Bethany Cox

If you cross "Independence Day" with "The Expendables" and leave out the stars and budget, you get a movie like "Invasion Roswell" a.k.a. "Exterminators vs Aliens" (2013). Aging tough guys have to fend off an alien invasion with plastic guns - but first, they battle back pain.

This is awesome: One of these elite old-timers is a lovably crazy Murdock-type - can fly anything, but isn't quite all there. He reports alien abductions and repeated "harbor tours" involving anal probes. Denise Crosby (Star Trek TNG: Tasha Yar) scans his head for an alien chip and uses an ultrasound machine like a tricorder.

The story is thinner than the patchy chin hairs of a Roswell alien, and the lack of budget shows not just in the tight camera shots of every micro-set (often drowned in fog machine haze so you can't see anything). But I still laughed a lot and marveled at this shameless blockbuster mashup ripoff.

After a 1947 Roswell, New Mexico alien attack, the US has kept a top secret crew of five individuals trained in fighting off another invasion. Because the crew was getting old and the aliens did not return, they were forcibly retired. Seven years later, the aliens are coming back. Big, ugly spaceships hover over Earth's largest cities. These aliens are not shy. A newscaster reveals the alien race is "bent on our destruction!" After seeing the "Breaking News" on television, burly Greg Evigan (as Patrick Conte) is assaulted by a human-like form in a metal-like spacesuit. Fortunately for Mr. Evigan, he has an occasionally bluish glowing object which seems to scare the attacker back into its spaceship...

Evigan decides, "I have to get the team back together." First, he locates seemingly loony John Francis (as George), who frets about an anal probe but often seems willing to drop trou for more action. Next re-recruited are gun-collecting Clarence Smith (as Tweety) and cowboy-type hunter Daniel Hugh Kelly (as David). Smart graying blonde Denise Crosby (as Linda) rounds out the quintet. One of the only sensible things we learn is that 66 years isn't such a long time between visits, considering the number of light-years the extra-terrestrials must be traveling. Apparently, the aliens have watched the "Star Wars" film series with much admiration. "Invasion Roswell" otherwise makes only a little sense.
