Can we just talk about how the first half of the movie was decent, then it's like they had no idea what to do. SPOILERS. 1. Oops we forgot to kill off all the characters, how fast can we do that. 2. Yes, kids with certain conditions have been known to be savants, no those kids do not get their own desk at a top secret facility studying alien tech because the magically understand everything about their tech, and somehow can fluently translate their language. 3. Predator killer. 4. Let's take liberties M. Night shamalamadingdong would be ashamed of and ruin a classic film series. 5. Space dog lobotomy. In short, just don't bother, but if you do cut it off after the kid blows up the house.
