More smart social commentary with aliens than special-effects "wow".

Not at all what I expected, but very good.


I'd recommend it.

:thumbsup:

2. The commercials make it look like "Independence Day"
Which IMO was an awful sci-fi movie.

Glad to hear that's not the case.

5. I agree...but it's not that at all.
Even my 18-year-old son liked it.

4. Just saw it. Very good movie. I liked the media following the action
in what appear to be helicopters.

6. Extremely violent, sometimes nauseating movie
But great.

7. Adding the "But great" is redundant to me after reading your subject line.
