Alien Earth has an interesting premise and striking atmosphere, but the execution falls short. The world-building is compelling and the visuals often hint at something profound, yet the story wanders and never fully commits to its ideas. The pacing drifts, emotional beats don't land, and the film feels more like a mood piece than a coherent narrative. Some performances struggle to connect with the material, making key moments feel flat instead of impactful. In the end, Alien Earth is ambitious but uneven-worth watching for the concept and visuals, but not quite delivering the depth it aims for.
As for Alex Lawther's role, this wasn't the strongest showcase. He is so boring.

"Uglies" is an absolute abomination from start to finish. It's rare to see a film fail on nearly every level, but this one manages to do just that. The acting is painfully wooden, with not a single performance managing to feel even remotely authentic. The plot is a disjointed mess, completely lacking in cohesion or any real sense of purpose. It stumbles through tired clichés without any originality or depth, leaving the audience with nothing to care about. There's a clear lack of direction, and the film feels like a series of bad decisions stacked on top of each other. In short, "Uglies" is a colossal waste of time and a perfect example of how not to make a movie.
What was promised as a thrilling rollercoaster ride turned out to be a tepid, by-the-numbers caper that could put even the most forgiving action enthusiasts to sleep.
One might think it's hard to mess up a spy thriller, but "Argyle" takes this as a challenge, weaving a narrative so convoluted and devoid of logic that it leaves viewers not only confused but utterly disinterested. The screenplay seems to have been cobbled together from the cutting room floor of superior films, resulting in a story that lacks originality or coherence. The characters, if they can be called that, are cardboard cutouts lacking depth or motivation.
