Don't Believe anyone that gives this more than one star, they must be family, horrible garbage. bad story line, bad acting, unbelievable, my husband left the room and i fast forwarded till the end to find something worth seeing and there was nothing. 699 and 1 hour wasted. I want a refund for both ugh
nuff said. I get that they bounced back and forth in the time line, and if that's done right, it's a good thing but this was done so haphazardly. I kept falling asleep. Can't stay focused on a film that has botched scene sequencing. It was so poorly done, it made me loose interest. Much like trying to put a puzzle together with a boat load of ill fitting pieces.
With scenes lifted from "Signs" and Tom Cruise's "War of the Worlds," editing so choppy that I couldn't always tell what time line was being presented (and I understood "Primer." Hint: copying the editing style of "Lost" without actually understanding why they did it won't make a good movie), a cultural view of relationships and marriage that only Millenials who thought "90210" represented real life would believe, and what appears to be a sincere desire on the director's part to tell two stories, I simply cannot recommend this movie.
I was once a micro publisher and we regularly received books for review that wanted to tell one story, but thought that telling another story would make it successful. In every case, the story the author wanted to tell was a human drama story (the heartache of affairs, lost love, yadda, yadda, yadda), but they knew that other stories were much more popular. So they would couch the story they wanted to tell in another story: time travel (often civil war romance), westerns, vampires, etc. The result was always a terrible story, and this is no different. Which is a shame, because the special effects where better than average for a low-budget flick and the acting wasn't bad for a bunch of new-comers.
Unfortunately, the biggest problem in the flick (ok, the second biggest, it was SLOW) is that the director actually thinks 20-somethings experience life-altering moral issues. At 50+ it's actually quite tedious to see 20-somethings bemoaning how their lives are over and they're all alone. Kids that haven't actually experienced a lot of real life - and yet that was the story the director wanted to tell. Which, once again, is too bad because the alien story was actually quite well presented. (Well, except for the rifle. A bit too obvious as a plastic toy. Guys, you should have at least glued, sanded, and painted the plastic seam. I'm just sayin'.)
So, end result, not a movie I can recommend.

Garbage. There's nothing else to say, but the review process requires 5 lines in order to be a valid review, so I'll just carry on pointlessly like this movie until I reach the minimum number of characters to fill up 5 lines. When in the course of human events, it becomes necessary for one people to dissolve the political bands which have connected them...
And a pointless ending. I guess i have to leave a longer review. The acting's not great. Alot of whats happening doesn't make much sense. I had a little hope in the second act but it went to heck in the 3rd. Some good jump scares if your into that. Not really a bad-bad or a good-bad movie more a ok-bad movie. If your into alien movies, jump scares and are really really board give it a go.

- GoofsWhen Ryan is helping the little girl in the alley with her leg there is a scene with a disappearing/reappearing bow. At first it's not there, then we see her hurt leg and she has a bow on the left side, then he takes it off to tie around her leg and it's magically back again, then finally gone again.
