Home Invasion

Seems like my brain died after watching this. Haven't seen anything so badly scripted for ages.

At first I was excited when I saw the cast for this show. John Noble is phenomenal and I enjoyed Morena Baccarin in Firefly / Serenity, but this show is so horrid I couldn't stand it long enough for their roles to get going. This show is in no way funny or interesting. Stupid and boring is the best way to describe it.

Despite the title being slightly misleading, this show is a sci-fi comedy. True to its genre, the plot is some-form of hybrid of Mars Attacks!, Men In Black and Hitchhikers Guide to the Galaxy, and of course pretty surreal. This is average entertainment if one is not expecting bigger than life story. Take it as it is, no- brainer.

Im relieved that there still is some competition to the Hollywood Cookie Cutter cud. It may only be a 7, but I gave it an extra star because Johan Glans was in it... GO JOHAN!

Fan of the doctor, then this is right up your alley, this at least might be an underground success.

I didn't realize this was a series because it was presented as a movie on Prime. Although it explained the filming quality and pacing when when I found out afterwards. Regardless, it made sense to watch it in one sitting as for me there wasn't enough momentum to break it up and keep coming back.

I thought it was an amusing premise and had some enjoyable humour and characters, as well as some good twists. I had at least a couple of lols.

The set up with the nosy neighbour and her hubby was great.

I think it's sometimes enough that a show is entertaining, not everything has to be groundbreaking!
