Unlike another Tom Cruise movie I saw recently, this movie just was NOT good enough for me to forget it was him. In fact, this movie was a pretty bad piece of schlock, frankly. It was as if they made a remake of Independence Day…but left out all the good parts.

WARNING: SPOILERS AHEAD:

I mean – come on… Alien invasion. Fine. The aliens come, and kill a bunch of people and wreck a bunch of cities. Fine, we were expecting that.

And then what happens? They. Just. Die. Say what? No, America doesn’t come up with a master plan to destroy them or figure out a weakness or IN ANY WAY do anything redeeming at all. Nobody tricks the aliens, or thwarts their master genocide plan. The fuckers just die. Because, you know, they weren’t “accustomed to our planet” the way we are. How fucking stupid is that.

Hellloooo in alien invasion movies, the whole point is the humans overcoming the aliens. Talk about a No Hope ending! Because clearly the next set of aliens just has to be accustomed to our planet and they’ll have no problem annihilating all of us.
Stupid.
