LOL! I just saw it a few days ago too... and I was also pissed that they took the easy way out by making it an aliens movie!

WTF... how much harder would it have been to just make it a conspiracy?

yeah, lots of loose ends. and i swear if i heard Julianne Moore scream 'Sam' one more time, I was going to whip the remote. Her performance was reminiscent of the coked-out porn star in Boogie Nights.
 
I thought a couple of the scare scenes were well done... like the angle of the car broadsiding their car... and how the black woman investigator suddenly got taken away... and lastly how the alien dude screamed FORGET at Julianne Moore while his face changed... that sh!t freaks me the fvkc out.

i hated the face morph (see post ^^). my wife was already asleep at that point too. 🙁 2 scary 4 me. i do love scary movies though.

FORGET!!!! RAWR!
 
Here's an interesting thought.

What if the aliens never existed?

What if she was just psycho-schizo the whole movie dreaming this all up? She comes in and out of reality, thus the end where she's back to reality and no one knows a thing.

Did she ever even have a husband? She confronted him, and he didn't know who she was. Was that really him being brainwashed, or was it a moment of reality?
 
Ah, it's clearly alien, no? The elongated eyes, grey face? I didn't know they were so mean though 🙁

stupid mean aliens

Yes, a hybrid of Dark City and X-Files. I thought it was interesting, if somewhat forgettable...

😀

I love Dark City - besides the memory removal, I don't think it is much related though.

Also at the end, the creature's face morphed into a somewhat demonic form when he blew the glass. Also, he was "punished" at the end by being blown through the roof for "failure" of his duties. His abilities to instantly heal, have superhuman strength, teleport at will, scan thoughts, and wipe memories with but a mere thought leads one to believe he's part of some supernatural force. I perosnally thought he was some form of demon.

Demon? He looked like an Alien when he did that. 😕
 
ONLY good scenes in the movie worth watching = getting sucked outta earth.
Especially the scene where the black female cop got sucked away...made everyone jump.
 
watched it just now, worst movie evar. saw the alternate ending also. no sign of the alien in that ending. its just an "experiment". I'd rather see a movie about those scientists than see the subjects. horrible horrible movie.
 
I just rented this last night, and thought it sucked. FWIW, I watched the theatrical version, rather than the alternate/extended cut. I just didn't find the concept interesting or believable. I'd give it 2/5.
 
just saw this. OMGBBGWTF! why did they make this an alien movie. it would have been better of it was a bit more realistic. like she was psycotic or something.
 
just watched the extended/alternate ending version. What was different in the theatrical release? I can't be bothered to watch it again...
