Alpha Code

Despite the occasional glowing 8-10 star reviews, believe the negative reviews. This movie is pure tripe. It's very obviously not based on a true story-- it's as fanciful as they come. This is basic alien abduction with quite a bit of fictional nonsense thrown in for good measure.

While it maintains an air of mystery 2/3 of the way through (making one think it might wind up being a good movie), the last third is a nonsensical, ridiculous premise that one would have to be uber-gullible to believe. The explanation is convoluted, absurd, and ties nothing together.

In short, this is simply a poorly-made movie that relies on a claim of being a true story-- and Denise Richards-- to carry the film. This lacks all the elements of a well-made film. I don't often give a film 2 stars unless it's really bad, but this didn't deserve 3. Alien UFO abduction / whatever cow plop.

Its a really bad movie. Bad acting, bad movie sets, bad story. The only reason I gave it 4 stars was cool cars and nice houses. A good movie to have on in the background while you play on your phone. 4/10.

Based on a true story? What story, the one about how the writer couldn't come up with one?

I like most films about aliens, and thought i'd check this out, which i normally wouldn't based o the dire review score of 3.6, but i have 2 say it was ok to decent, certainly not 3.6. It was worth a watch which with so many dire terrible pointless movies around, is actually a recommendation, as i give most films about 20 minutes to get me interested,or there off. it deserves a 5 and many sci fi folk may quite like it.

The story is so suspenseful and mysterious, that I just don't have a clue what is going on. The ending twist just adds more confusion.
