Give me a good laptop computer, an HD camera and a few students from the local primary school, and I can make a better movie than this. The animation looks like something created on an Amiga 500, the story has neither head nor tail, and the actors ... Well, I'd better not comment them at all.
This movie is so bad that it is torture for your eyes and your mind.Save yourself the torture and use your time and money on something more sensible.
This movie is undoubtedly one of the worst ever created, and does not even deserve one star..

This is a truly terrible movie. The only reason I watched it was so that I could give a complete and honest review here and warn people not to waste their time.
The sound is terrible as they leave a noise in the background throughout the entire movie. I assume this is a simulation of the noise that the aliens are suppose to be making. Of course, with this noise in the background it is near impossible to make out the script... but don't be troubled because the script that I heard was as bad as the movie stars acting in the film.
The acting was about the only thing worse than the movie itself. There was really no story line, so, in the actors defense, this probably is the best they could ever do with a movie this bad. We are all safe though as I am almost positive that you will never see any of them in anything else worth watching.
Alas, the fickle world of Hollywood.
Unfortunately, this picture will probably sell tickets based upon its name, but it is nothing like Battle:Los Angeles and it is almost as bad as Battle for Los Angeles. With all the crap coming out of Hollywood these days, this movie is at the bottom of the pack.
Watch it at your own risk because you HAVE been warned!

Terrible. Ranks among the worse movies I've seen. In my opinion its lousy in respect to just about everything that has to do with a movie. It seems to me that it could be compared to a group of freshman college kids trying to make a movie from a horrible script with inferior equipment. E for effort though! Some of the acting is OK but some is not good at all. It wasn't filmed like Cloverfield or Blair Witch Project with all the bouncing around. What that means is one is not distracted from viewing what I think are all the undesirable elements of this film. So, because of this, attention is drawn to those undesirable aspects. All in all I stick with the E for effort; but, the reality is, in my opinion, it could have been a lot better. Background music and sound doesn't help either. Its not what I call good.
This is a terrible piece of work. The acting? Terrible. The story? Terrible. The effects? Terrible. Trust me, your time will be better spent seeing how long you can hold your breath.
How does this failing pile of utter rubbish get on a paid streaming service. I'd pay to not see this film.

I don't get all the negative reviews. I'm watching it as I write my review and I'm enjoying this not-your-typical-zombie/alien-invasion film. The set-up for the story is unique, and the use of mentally ill patients as the protagonists is an interesting change of pace.
OK, the actors aren't A-listers, but they do a better job than I think a lot of reviewers are giving them credit for. It's tough to portray someone who's actively schizophrenic without becoming an over-the-top caricature, and these actors do a credible job. And the special effects are pretty decent given the limited budget they probably had to work with, and the SFX aren't the point of the story anyway.
Give it a chance and decide for yourself.

Complete rubbish. Unintelligible gibberish for dialog.
Absolutely rotten acting. The lead actress has a very severe case of rising inflections.
The directing is awful. Film quality is pre-1960 - everything is either green or brown.
The 'special effects' are laughable. Blood stains from gunshots to someone's torso aren't on the torso but visibly inches in front. The blood splatters all have the same spray pattern. A five year old with PhotoShop could have done better.
The highlight of the entire movie was a two second scene of a blank screen and complete silence.

This is a different take on an invasion of earth. I would say say nothing revolutionary here. But I would say the way of preparing an invasion with nano technology instead of 10 mother ships and 1 million alien spacecrafts do seem more realistic.
If you want nice effects and fancy camera work then you should definitely look elsewhere. The acting is not what you will be dazzled by. But come on you do see just as bad acting sometimes in movies with actors that get a higher salary than what this movie production cost in total.
If BNY comes one day on the telly or a computer near you :-) when you have nothing better to do then you can try it if you like less action oriented survival movies with few special effects. It is not a movie I would pay a fortune for or I will watch again. But it was okay watching while relaxing a bit.
