Attraction 2 - Invasion

1) Take some ideas from Independence Day, Minority Report, The Day After Tomorrow, Titanic and some Youtube videos about Japan's Tsunami. 2) Mix them thoroughly 3) Ignore all the rules for writing a screenplay that works

Enjoy the result.

It seems most of the rewievers missed a certain point of both films. 2 Points to be exact. By the title "attraction", one would think they would understand that it is supposed to be a love story. And the second one, the more important one, is that both movies are supposed to say how easily are we humans convinced that something has happened when the media tell us, in other words, how completely and utterly are we dependant on digital technology, infomation technology and how easily can negative emotions and lack of information sway us to acts we otherwise would not commit.

The writers of this movie made a solid research into human psychology, and I like that. 9/10.

"Vtorzhenie" is an interesting film with a messy script, but not bad. The special effects and the cinematography are wonderful, an excellent sound design and a cool music score. The direction is fine and the acting is good. The opening credits are totally great. Back to the script is messy sometimes but with good points, there is some James Cameron's influences as some similar scenes to "The Terminator" and "The Abyss". "Vtorzhenie" could be better, but it's an interesting film.

134 minutes of dragged out plot and technical issue riddled writing that felt like 5 hours. You'd think they would've learned from the first films' mistakes. Nope. The first film was written by 5th graders. This one by 5 year olds. These writers need to go back to high school. Pretty sure the subbing was also done by 5 years olds. Acting was ok, and the score surprisingly good and fitting. The cinematography was excellent and the S/VFX were stellar - which is the main reason I'm giving this film my very generous 5/10

This movie joins a long and honorable list of sequels that should not have been made but were made anyway because of the success of the originals (think Pacific Rim Uprising or Independence Day 2 ). The sequel dropped the deeper philosophical elements of the original entirely and filled the remaining space with even more action scenes. And if you throw enough action scenes in a movie, some of them will end up being good. Unfortunately this yields a poorly paced, loud, and ultimately derivative movie, though Michael Bay would probably approve it.
