The movie takes your mind off the elements of the world as we know it today. It also reminds us that many of our problems are just like the movie.( put in context). If you have to think about what you have read so far there is no hope for you, but don't be blind and lead those of us that can see and THINK. Face it, you guys are just jealous of the hero that you wish you were, just like me. There are not many heroes today except our Firefighters, Police, and our Warriors overseas. So it is like I said, Mel is the hero we wish we were, and if we were, we would have more than half the problems as mentioned earlier solved with no excuses. Is that clear enough!

The movie is not even worth reviewing, except for the fact that it stars a one-time legitimate actor named Jason London. I know he is pretty much just a pretty boy, but there was a time when he appeared in legit movies. I wonder what happened to him? I can guess, but I dare not say for fear of being sued. Anyhow, the movie is a very bad -- and I mean very bad --- copy of I COME IN PEACE, which was about two enemy aliens duking it out on Earth. In that incredibly silly but fun movie, which starred another has-been, Dolph Lundgren, the aliens at least looked like something from another planet. In this movie, the aliens are an ordinary-looking black guy and someone dressed in what appears to be an ancient aviator outfit. I have seen worse, but not by much. I only watched it for London, who fails to deliver the goods. He reminds me a little of Kyle McLaughlin, another pretty boy who seems unable to act -- at least ever since SHOWGIRLS. Please avoid this one.

I'm a writer, so I totally get what people are saying about plot holes and such, but it's a good film. Very action-packed, and you could pick out your clichés with your eyes closed, which can be fun.Jake was funny, and I'm so glad he managed to shoot the Jeep; at least -somebody- understands that stopping the vehicle is far more practical than aiming to kill the driver.Monica was okay, as far as relatively unimportant female love interests go, and it amused me that she was shrieking for Jude during the scene in the forest despite obviously being meant to be Jake's love interest. She's only rather pretty, too, which is always a plus when you've gotten used to love interests who exist solely for the male audience to gawk at (Mikaela from the new Transformers movies, I'm staring you down, right between the eyes.).Jude, well, Jude was awesome. He had this amusing twitch in the right side of his face, and I was thinking it would make an interesting drinking game. Also, I found his protectiveness when concerning Jake to be very, very, -very- sweet. This is the sort of thing that differentiates the good aliens from the evil, world-asploding aliens. However, he had a very out-of-character moment when he shot Diamond Joe and kidnapped (for lack of a better term) Monica, which confused me immensely, given that I'd been lead to believe he was a good guy.Kronnan was a useful villain and a good liar, but there's not much else to say about the guy.

This was quite disappointing. I had higher hopes for this movie, although i'm not sure why. The movie started decently enough but soon became worse + worse until it was just hard to watch for how bad it was. The movie doesn't even take place in Area 51. The story (or lack there of) is incoherent and the acting is hardly any better. A few of the actors deliver alright but the dialogue + story just isn't there. Very little about the "plot" really makes sense in the film + it seems the writers were making it up as they go. The directing/camera work on the film is also quite shotty. O well, this is what i get for trusting the Sci-Fi channel.
