Likes : i completely love this film, the way it starts to the way it finished, this film was awesome for several reason it wasn't a one sided battle it was an all out survival battle against an alien race that was like a military force well organised & powerfully but the did show that the human race can fight back just as hard as they tried to destroy them,this film by my account was awesomes, you believed in the charters fear & struggle to survive against an almost unstoppable force,aaron eckhart performance in this film was spot on & i didn't realise that ne-yo was in the film as well playing as cpt harris.
This film was a rollercoaster of emotions up & down, it was a cross between district 9,independence day, black hawk down,skyline all rolled into one film but better than the other films.
Dislikes : there is nothing i didn't like about this film because it was awesome
Overall : this film deserve an oscar for special effects,storyline & action this film is awesome,it is seriously a must to see at the cinema or on dvd when it comes out,its a 2 half hour rollercoaster of a emotional ride of action, suspense,heartbreak & edge of the seat moments seriously if you miss this film your be mad.
Rating : 5 out of 5 stars for entertainment, 10 out of 10 action & edge of your seat moments.
