Wow. i'm having a hard time wondering why people are so upset about "global warming" and the environment. Global Warming is a concept that was made to make you buy more Hybrids and "ecofriendly" trash. where i'm from movie tickets are 8.50 a piece, i took my girlfriend with me. this was seriously the biggest letdown of the year.... bad way to start summer, atleast i'll set the bar lower for the next movies i'll be seeing.

I've had time to calm down after seeing this on opening night to write an impartial review. Simply saying this movie is awful doesn't even begin to touch the tip of this carwreck of a film. I now think people are seeing this to view how terrible it actually is. It's worse than you can imagine. Simply awful.

This movie was the typical M Night movie. Personally I think rating his films as thrillers is a disservice. His movies are never as scary as the write ups lead you to believe and that's OK. In my opinion his movies are made to make you think. I agree with the person who said it was more realistic that the typical alien movie. I think the problem with most people is they have forgotten how to think at a movie and can't handle something without extreme violence, blood and gore.

I never write here but i feel it is my duty to tell all not to waste their money on this movie. Absolutely horrible and if you HAVE to see it maybe rent it, or wait for it to be on TV one day. Surpisingly terrible acting, the story line was terrible. Seriously waste of time and money.

I don't know what movie all you negative reviewers saw...but it couldn't be the same one I saw (unless you are a kid...then I could see you thinking it may be dull) I thought it was terrific. A real thought inducer. But if you want to be scared this isn't the movie for you.
