The greatest movie ever made..!

Really Surprised!

It's not great by any means, but it's a pretty good movie that didn't leave me filled with regret for investing time in it.

Actress is magnificent and exudes a hypnotic screen presence in this affecting drama.

No real flow of events. Terrible ending seems to be the beginning for a sequel which I would never watch.

One reviewer just did a retell of the whole script. Pathetic! Usually I check out a movie on IMDB before viewing it. This one I put on without checking it out beforehand. I guessed the scores to well above what has been awarded to it. As one who is not a fan of SciFi I actually enjoyed the movie. The acting was very convincing. The storyline kept me involved throughout. Although aimed at a teenage audience our adult daughter informed us she had already seen it as well as reading the book. There is enough variety to appeal to older audiences and I'd you like kids then you will enjoy the youth. There is a twist or two along the way and the movie ends on a reasonable note without closing off the story or leaving you up in the air. It makes you think as well. It is not mindless alien rubbish. Some critics are too harsh and not even able to substantiate giving it shockingly low scores. I think seven is a fair score even if you are not a teen!

I must say even if most people did not enjoy this movie i did it was gripping and thrilling at times i love the suspense. and the survival aspect of this movie from aliens all round good sifi horror not the greatest but bearable so to me good

The poor user reviews here should not be taken as gospel. Give it a shot. Has some major actors in parts and the main characters, the daughter and her brother, do a surprisingly good acting job. The story is well paced, effective, and kept my interest.
