It's hard to watch this without thinking of all the reasons things like this just couldn't happen. (For more information, consult the goofs and trivia section and you will see what I am talking about.) I enjoyed the special effects, the actors they chose, and the directing was just fine too. My personal feeling was that after the movie was over it was just okay. I wasn't depressed with any one thing, it just didn't impress me as much as say, Independence Day, which was by the same director and was a great movie as long as you didn't think about the plot. I would strongly advise not to pay full price for this one. I saw it for free and I'm glad I did. I hope his next film is a little better than this one. Oh, by the way, the girls were really cute. I give this film a 5 out of 10.
