For all of you who have seen the movie. What was our overall impression? Surprisingly It got horrible reviews on Rotten Tomatoes but to be honest I never follow them anyways. What I have noticed however is that alot of military personnel liked it.
I personally liked it because it had just enough character depth to care about the individuals during the combat situations. It didn't crowd your mind with dumb subplots because let's be honest, yes we want to be involved with the characters but 98% of the people who went to the movies went to see a Alien Invasion and they got it.
I think it was a great depiction of Military personnel in combat and the sacrifice they gave to try and save something they believed so much in.
I have seen it twice so far and want to see it again.
Also on the subject of actors. I thought everyone acted perfectly in it, great acting all around. Also usually a singer turned actor doesn't work. The only person I really have seen who does a good job is Justin Timberlake and Mos Def but Ne-Yo did a very good job in my honest opinion.
I give the movie a 9.3/10
