It's not that bad. But not good either. It lies somewhat in between. lol. I'd like to believe it's a low-budgeted film which explains why the casting, setting and plot (generally) were restricted. The first 20 minutes was exciting, suspense is in the air by the next scenes, until I realized 11 minutes were left and nothing really is making sense yet. It was such a cliff-hanger, leaving too many questions unanswered. But if it is due to the fact that it will have a part 2, with everything explained there, then it'll have its peace. With all the bad reviews, they should really make a sequel and prove that it's a must-watch alien movie like no other.
