    Oh good grief

    I really am struggling to find the words to describe JUST how bad this movie is. Poor CGI. TERRIBLE acting. Obviously a rip off story... Poor narrative that doesn't come close to the original movie which wasn't exactly poetry in motion itself.

    It's just impossible to understand why they can get away with pumping out this nonsense. Or how even struggling actors get involved in such nonsense.. although I guess sometimes you have to do what you have to do.... but oh dear god... the humiliation.... !!

    Truly awful... avoid at all costs.

    I didn't and now I have the scars to show for it.

    Don't spend a dime on this one.

    This movie is a total ripoff. Someone should sue them and all monies should be refunded. The dialog is the worst I have ever seen. The cinematography is terrible - I think a home movie camera would have done a better job, the story line is beyond bad - it reminds me of a 1960's era scifi movie - not much beyond Godzilla. I really hope that the producer, director, production company and even the actors have NO career going forward, as this movie is just a scam playing a an earlier movie with a similar title. It would be hard to "spoil" this one, as there really is no viable plot and the entire movie is pretty much predicable. You've been warned!

    Inane Bread Loaf for Few?

    Not since the accidental filming of my great grandmother's vaginal cyst explosion has anything SO exciting hit the big screen! I was riveted to my seat. (No, I really was; my wife has a new rivet gun and she was experimenting). The special effects are better than anything ever to come out of Ms. Cosgrove's 2nd grade film-making class at Goobersville Elementary! And the acting! Where shall I begin? Imagine Gomer Pyle playing the lead in, "My Life as a Woe-man; the Story of Bruce Genderless." I see Academy Awards all over the place!! (NOT for this movie, but...nonetheless...) Download this movie...seriously...what have you got to lose? (Think about that...very carefully)

    True Rating -1

    This is awful was on for a full 15 minutes and about 10 of them was spent with me looking for my laptop to rates this 1 though it does not deserve one.

    The Asylum keep making these awful movies. If this was a spoof version of Independence Day it would probably be worth a watch.

    However its just a cheap imitation with basic CGI that looks as bad as the acting.

    Even SyFy Channel don't do things this bad.

    I should know by now anything attached to the Asylum needs to be binned without viewing.

    Independents Day Perfect B Movie ScFi Action

    All the poor reviews for this film surprised me when I first read them. I seen this movie at my local Walmart for 10 bucks.Being a huge Independence Day fan and B movie fan I grabbed it. I had 0 hopes of it being any good due to it being produced by The Asylum but it IS a great B movie. The special effects are really good and the story is quite engaging. The acting is as good as you can expect for this kind of film buy better than most I have seen. If you dig B movie ScFi flicks and love the alien invasion idea you will enjoy this movie. I gave it 5 out of ten and for a B flick that's pretty good. You won't be disappointed. I felt like the story could have been an interesting idea if the right studio had gotten it besides the Asylum but still it's probably their best produced film that I have seen. The ships and the aliens look great and the space battles are cool as heck. Very good alien B movie. Check it out.
