Dark Skies (2013)
Fridge raiders
23 June 2013
Warning: Spoilers
This film begins with a quote from Arthur C Clarke which states that we are either alone in the universe or not, and both prospects are equally frightening. Here's another one to ponder if you will: either this film represents the best writing Hollywood can buy or they know any old crap will do. Either prospect is equally scary.

There are no scares in this movie though, really none at all. The bits that are supposed to be scary were funny, for example the scene where they find the father outside with his mouth open. It looked absurd and bear in mind we're talking about one of the big scenes of the movie here. Aliens that invade your fridge and leave your bacon on the floor? Just ridiculous. What part of the alien masterplan did that achieve I wonder.

After boring you with a story that doesn't really go anywhere the film just ends abruptly as though it was so jam-packed with good bits it had to rush the ending or something.
