As a war movie, this could be rated much higher, but it pretends to be sci-fi/horror movie. It is not. It is a war movie with many human monsters, a few special effect monsters thrown in to pretend it is sci-fi/horror and unlikable characters (at least for me). If you want a movie about a group of young men going to war and how they react to the horrors of it, I am sure you can find other, much better movies that don't pretend to be something other than they are.

This is one of the most underrated movie ever. This movie is very significant because it shows that people without AN EXISTENTIAL MEANING search for a MISSION where to get it beyond the futility of its daily life by a gun and uniform so to cause and get only DEATH. There is action, meaning and reality in this movie, brutal reality where INNOCENCE is defeated by the hypocrisy of a war fought against the monsters inside the soul of wasted people deceived as well as disillusioned because of the void inside their souls due to a false material life. The soldiers will search for the mission to get a meaning, but they will get the REALITY of their useless life, useless weapons, useless uniform and useless deaths surrounded by the genuineness of life around themselves which they begin to consider as the enemy, so discovering that... the real MONSTER IS THE "puppet" WITH THE GUN (they are the real enemies which manages the gun in order to feel big because they stay small). This movie is too much smart for many people unable to understand and appreciate its meaning.

As mentioned by other folks. This movie isn't all bad.Following on from the excellent first movie they have done a great job in making a suggestive movie. What would you do in a combat situation with the over threat of alien monsters? And how it would affect you over time?Granted the human side is slightly overplayed and possibly overdone but it works well. The alien side is played down but again, threat unknown.Good movie, worth a watch.

Yes, I'm talking about a sequel to an already crappy movie. Why watch the second installment if the first wasn't even remotely appealing? Well, my fault for being interested in more of the monster alien "invasion". Hopped they'd gotten their game together and pulled a better plot with more points to make about minimum sci-fi twist (where, when and how were they found, a paragraph about alien colonizing ecosystem, etc) as opposed to the multiple, yet undefined genre the first movie was aiming at. I wrote about the first to be uninspired and completely misdirected (somebody said even "cheap" and I think that replaces low budget), but this one is even worse. They tried so hard a repeat of the nonsense in the first they almost crapped themselves. The actors are screaming and making all sorts of noises as if they have some stomach issues and that's almost a spoiler. Worse actors than first installment? Check on negative scale, zero is too much. Sometimes, there are people who excel at something. The people involved in the making of these movies surely excel, but not in cinematography, this is where they suck. Get a DIFFERENT job!
