Invasão ao Planeta Terra

The story of getting the film made is very inspiring, but not relevant to whether the film is any good or not. And sadly, it isn't. It's woeful in almost every regard.

The overall story is an interesting idea, but everything from the terrible script, the uniformly awful supporting cast, the stagey direction/editing and the mostly cheap VFX make you wonder why they even bothered.

If given the right resources maybe the director could come up with something impressive, but this is not a good calling card.

Thomas Dunn's day cant be any worse than mine after watching this film .....17 years in the making ,and i felt ever one of them... before anyone starts ...yes i know it was made on a low budget and yes an independent film but you have to give the viewer something to work with.... its not what i would call a nights entertainment watching something that you are fighting with yourself not to switch off and you keep thinking well it may get better as it goes along but it don't ,....when it could be me ? Looking at some of the other reviews on here 10 s and 9s ect.

I'm a huge movie buff and believe me I watch a lot from the 30s to 2021. I'm a patient person and I can enjoy many a good B movie. I give things a chance. I can usually watch and get through bad films. But this is beyond bad. It was all over the place. It didn't flow. The story line was bad, plots were weak, The whole thing was a mess. I couldn't even watch it for the effects. It was painful, like pulling teeth. I got 3/4 way through. Don't waste precious time with this rubbish.

Still have 20 min left of the movie and can't decide whether to watch to the end or just gouge my eyes out.

Thomas Dunn is having a terrible day fit for a soap opera. Full of cliches, careless editing and continuity errors this is less a film and more of a red headed stepchild of Ed Wood.

We watch the story unfold with special effects so poor, they qualify as neither. Acting is also pretty painful for the most part with performers struggling to overcome a clunky and predictable story and a script that feels like a chainsaw lobotomy.

The value in Invasion Planet Earth is for film students looking to see how never to make a movie.
