    Teenage movie

    Typical movie with a geek who eventually gets a pretty girl.

    The soundtrack is completely off: the songs are too loud and they don't match the scenes. Filming is ok and so is the CGI and effects

    Acting is ok, but the androids look retarded, with their eyes pointing each at one direction, and the Men in Black organization is really silly.

    And a Cessna flying from Costa Rica to Canada is too much to bear.

    The underlying idea is quite interesting though, but of course atheists will hate it.

    Overall an ok film if you are a teenage geek with a deep need for a pretty girl in your life and some adventure.

    Why Film Editing is So Important

    This movie literally has everything, and that is the problem. I have never seen a movie where 50% is honestly good and the other 50% is film-school horrible.

    Overall the acting, special effects, and idea of the movie are good. But, the plot, pacing, and "black-ops government scenes" are so dumb (and out of place) they're comical. I have never edited film in my whole life, but I guarantee I can turn this stinker into a decent story with 30 minutes in the editing room.

    This movie has it all! Including (in no particular order): -Alien Abductions -Main Character who is "finding himself" -A train "chase" scene -Cyborgs on motorcycles -A lot of 1990's technology in 2020??? -Social Media bullying -Cable News -A 5,000 mile non-stop Cessna flight from Costa Rica to Canada (Impossible) -Breaking out of Prison -oh, and Jesus (yes, Jesus Christ)

    Utter nonsense

    So it's present day, our guy works at JPL and is a geek neither he, or anybody else has a smart phone and people exchange numbers by writing them down. A guy who says he writes a blog, gives a business card that has no email address or URL . People go on line but don't exhibit any normal behaviour of modern kids. It's still bearable until the men in black and the stormtroopers arrive and then it descends into a zero budget student movie with an unapologetic hijacking of science by religious twaddle.

    A 5th grader could've made a better film

    Wow this was bad. A whole lot of nothing - 119 min to be exact, that felt like an eternity with the ridiculously slow pacing. Writer, director, producer, and editor Eric Demeusy makes his first full-length feature film debut, having 6 previous short films on his resume. This should've been his 7th short film, because the 2 hours I had to sit through, was hell. It was cheesy - MIB guys, seriously?, the music and score were ridiculous - annoying and out of place, as was the "I-cant-decide-what-this-film-is-going-to-be-about" writing. Just a variety of up-chuck splattered everywhere. The acting was stale and boring - probably from the lack of direction by Demeusy. The only redeeming quality was the cinematography and some visuals (not the laser beams lol), which is what Demeusy's role has been in the film industry. That's were most of my 4/10 goes towards, and includes cutting a newb filmmaker some slack. Not deserving of anything less, because filmmakers have to start somewhere, right?

    Naive

    A carpenter has become an expert in communications and satellites, built a station and was able to receive an encrypted broadcast and decode it and turn it into an understandable language, while the government couldn't!!!

    They fled in the middle of the woods in Costa Rica and suddenly a magic solution to all their problems is shown meters away. A communications and computer expert with an untraceable Internet connection and he has all the connections that can provide them with a boat and a flight to take them from Costa Rica to Canada.

    The movie is supposed to be in the present days , the main character is a computer engineer, and still uses a huge size camera from the 1990s or 1980s that doesn't even have a display screen and still uses VCR tapes.

    Governmental agent that easily gives an order to shoot unarmed woman, and all his men simply execute the order

    And finally aliens navigating the universe searching for jesus.

    • Trivia
      The GPS coordinates that Zed enters into his computer result in a location at the southern end of Vancouver Island, British Columbia, Canada. It is actually 6 miles (not 60) to the nearest town called Sooke.
    • Goofs
      The distance from Costa Rica to British Columbia, as the crow flies (not up the coast as they traveled), is 3800 miles. The Cessna Seaplane they fly in has a range of 482 miles and cruises at 140 mph. It would have taken 27 hours and they would have had to refuel 8 times. Going the coastal route would have taken much longer and more refuels.

      Isaac: [in the jungle] What do you want?

      [in the cabin]

      Isaac: Why did you take us?

      Alien: We have conquered science, medicine, technology and the physical world. We search for something greater beyond our understanding. We've searched for the origin of the universe, the greatest conceivable existent.

      Isaac: Why us? I mean, why us?

      Alien: We study humans because they have measurable amounts of this aura living within them. We would like to ask you a question. Who is this?

      [shows a picture]

      Isaac: Why are you looking for him?

      Alien: He is a link to the origin of everything. In our observations he is the greatest common factor in humans with strong amounts of this aura.

      Zed: Who is it?

      Sara: Jesus.

      Alien: This answers our question.
