Invaders

Red Dawn meets War of the Worlds in Australia. Intermittent chick flick moments with tons of futuristic shoot-em-up scenes. Worth a look.

I think the movie tried to satisfy everyone, lots of drama stuff, lots of fight/ military stuff, lots of alien interaction, lots of alien empathy stuff, and in the end kind of failed to satisfy any of those lines. For me I would of liked more explanation of the grand strategy of the war. I did not really get the all important key target virus thing, I sort of got it, but more time spent in the military aspect would of done it for me. Less time with all the drama stuff. The baby thing was a little different in how it ends up.

A low budget battle for LA type of movie with all the soap opera drama U get with the typical modern sci fi TV series. If U wish this would be better, then definitely watch --Red Dawn (1984)--

I did not mind watching it, I like sci fi action movies. But like I said, in the end its kind of flat. nice song for the end credits

Not a good film.

Poor camera work and editing, too many light flares, too many swing shots and enough trolley work to make you travel sick.

Script is dry, delivery ranges between p*ss poor to not too bad and story extremely predictable, occasionally it does come together with the odd pithy comment, well delivered and well timed so not all is bad.

Special effects are on par with a home movie, action sequences too 'acted' although the humanoid aliens outfits look good.

On the plus side, all the actors are giving it 100%, even at the cheesiest of moments. And there is a lot of cheese.

What I did like was the locale, scenery is great, and whomever the extras are (I assume local folks?) come across as having a really good time.

While not the best of movies, it's a slow but solid start to the producer, writer and director. I'd be interested in seeing their next science fiction film.

I really enjoy watching this movie. It's just an easy, fun watch. It's not realistic (obviously) and it's not the most profound story you'll ever witness but who ever said it was going to be?

It's an action, scifi set in Australia (for once) and has a great local cast which is one of the main things I love about it. It really is a first of it's kind and if people think bashing it with bad reviews is in any way helpful then I don't know what to think.

I actually liked it a lot more the second time I watched it so if you weren't fussed the first time, it is worth another watch.

Don't take it too seriously and don't sweat the small discrepancies. As I said, it's a fun movie to watch if you just let it be.

And the practical effects are great too!

This had so much potential, big name actors (for Australia), clearly a significant budget but wow what a disaster it was. Bad direction, bad acting, poor continuity. Was really hoping this would be quality as a proud Australian but this movie has set the local industry back years. Such a shame
