This movie is terrible. Jonah is a film that has no idea what it wants to be. It is basically 2 movies rolled into one. It's a thriller about a crazy woman, who's crazy for no reason ,while also trying to be a sci fi film about human extinction and aliens and it doesn't work at all. Firstly, throughout most of the movie there's a whole lot of nothing going on. The characters don't make much sense either. As a child, Ozzie was abducted by aliens. Now, as an adult, he crosses paths with Jonah who was also abducted, but the writers don't really connect the 2 stories. At the end of the movie Ozzie and Jonah get into the alien ship and that's it?! No explanation as to why Ozzie and Jonah were abducted in the first place?! Why is Jonah in a vegetative state but Ozzie wasnt when he was a kid? The aliens arent explained much beyond them not wanting to intervene in Humankind's impending extinction. Margot's character was the strangest of all. Why is she seemingly normal for most of the movie and then suddenly she's completely insane and homicidal without any explanation?! It made no sense why she chased down Darren, killed him and brought his body back to the house. Why invite Darren and Ozzie to the house in the first place? I honestly wasnt surprised that this movie was bad. I could tell by the trailer that it wasnt any good but Alaina Huffman was good in Supernatural, Stargate Universe and The 100 so I wanted to see what she's been up to lately.
