Featured reviews
I watched this movie after seeing its rating, just to see how bad it could be. Oh my, was I disappointed? No, not at all. Undoubtedly, this is the worst movie I have ever seen in my life. The story was illogical, the characters act super weird in almost all situations, the actors have limited range of expressions.
Watching this movie made me realize how good the other bad movies I watched recently.

The plot went from possible contact with extraterrestrials to Satan. I just don't know what else to say. I'm floored. Why the writers thought this was a good idea is probably beyond all human understanding. Aside from that, the acting was below average except from two well-known actors who at times delivered their lines with almost no motivation. 3/10. Watch if you are bored.
Contrary to some reviews, this is no more a religious film than it is a science film. Both are very badly portrayed here. I don't know who's responsible for this mess, but I can't tell if they're seriously deluded or simply decided to prank the audience and see if they could get away with it.
Aside from an occasional bit of decent acting, this movie has no redeeming factors. The story is nonsense and the ending even more so. There is no actual theme to the plot and no conclusion. The film has some production quality. It starts out quasi-interesting and holds that for a bit into the film. Then it just plops... which makes one wonder how such a useless script ever made it through to a finished film.
The main thrust of this film constantly pits science against religion. Both fields encompass extremes that fail to realize that science and faith are both valid parts of human existence, and that neither science nor faith negate one another. Personal interpretation, ego, conceit and arrogance are plentiful on both "sides". This film almost makes that point... but not quite. All it succeeds in doing is presenting the worst of both in a loony bin situation.
This film presents both science and religion at their most ridiculous extremes. Seriously, the entire idea of SETI sending a group of people out in a party boat to make first contact? The basic premise is silly. I don't know what nut case pulled this plot out of his bag of delusions... but I envision his/her tiny apartment to be strewn with bits of paper notes scattered about and tacked to the walls, and strange symbols drawn on their mirrors. They stopped taking their meds long ago.
What this film is actually supposed to be about is anyone's guess. What is the plot, moral or even purpose of this flick? Did someone need a tax write-off? I can't say it's the worst movie I've ever seen, but it doesn't even come close to a 2 star rating. Stupid on a screen.

This movie is a decently made really bad 'religion religion religion' sci-fi extra-terrestrial object come-to-Earth movie. With the main character doing his darndest to look, sound, and have the presence of Denzel Washington, without quite hitting the mark. His performance is one of the guilty-pleasure highlights. Unfortunately, he continually rambles on with religious scripture whenever he gets a chance and pushing that religious narrative previously stated.
Go in knowing that the acting and the script are fairly amateurish. They do a lot of over-explaining and silly dialogue. It occasionally teeters on good-bad but then they fumble.
Its a pretty big skip and I rather regret the time spent on this movie.
There really is a LOT of religious talk against "science nerds" where the main character (Denzel*) systematically takes down their dumb science views to open yourself to god. And how dumb the scientists are. Ho-Hum 2/10.

Starts well. The first 55 minutes or so is a great film. Then it turns into a convoluted mish mash of all sorts of nonsense. The actual ending is ridiculous and uneventful. You'll just face palm m) yourself for bothering to stick it out.
