User Reviews :
What utter drivel. The trailers seemed to promise much but the story was so far fetched the audience at my cinema were laughing. The dialogue was hopeless. It was way too long and boring. The science and technology needs to be believable otherwise make it a cartoon!!!!! I'm sure your average 9 year old boy would love it but if you're over 16 with an IQ of over 90 you cant possibly enjoy it. Annoying issues: Do the US Navy promote enlist and then promote felons? Breaking and entering, burglary etc. I think not Do slim cheerleader stereotype women go alone into bars to buy microwave food?? Since when do EM / radio waves emitted from dishes appear visible? How can they converge in mid air? An alien 'communications' spaceship can withstand space travel but get destroyed by hitting a small satellite!!! Duh! How come they fired small shells at the alien ships but not their big weapons? They did later Water displacement to find the ships? WTF? NOAH satellite? THe shells on the Missouri are massive, way bigger than those things in the film LOL, but they could destroy the massive alien crap!!!
I found the whole disabled servicemen bit desperately patronising and reeked of exploitation.
