Damn I never thought I would be saying this after watching it but it was way better than the original.

It was like Aliens, Jurassic Park, Godzilla and Star Wars rolled into one with an Alien Invasion aspect :whew:.


Not sure why people are picking on the young actors as if it was just about them when the movie was clearly an ensemble. Goldblum, Pullman and the others got as much time as them. Goldblum's character and the character's father also made up for the lack of Will.

The African Alpha was good too :ehh:


Will's son should have had a love interest, notice how he's the only one in the group with no partner at the end :mjpls: even the corny sidekick got play :mjpls: @Cabbage Patch @Ziggiy

Ok...i like the story concept, but the pacing and dialogue really lacked. Also, jessie usher isnt a good actor, I've always been :patrice: on him in survivors remorse, but that's not really the height of acting, but on the big screen he falls flat....that mayday call where he ejects during the practice flight :francis: also, is he gay? :dahell:

They also built too unrealistic a world for it to be present day on earth, DC looked like a city you'd find on pandora or a video game, the CGI was just :francis:

That said, for all its flaws, I enjoyed the movie for some strange reason and although the talking friendly bot was cheesy as fukk, I'm interested in seeing how a part 3 would play out on some intergalactic shyt :gladbron:

I'm not sure what ya'll where expecting but this was exactly the amount of unprecedented fukkery I was expecting. My biggest (and really only) issue with the flick is the hilariously rushed pacing, I swear there are like fifteen major characters deaths and/or moments that get completely brushed over like it's nothing. The movie is in such a constant hurry to keep moving that it no-sells anything that happens despite the fact nearly half the world perishes in this.

I also had no idea they were bringing back so many of the OG characters. I just thought they were bringing in Gawdblum and Pullgawd but they actually brought back all those other guys you completely forgot about, that was a welcome surprise. And they introduced a whole bunch of other nonsensical fukkery characters which I loved even more. I mean, you could complain about how stupid the whole movie is but this is a movie where an African warlord armed with machetes declares in all seriousness that the aliens are best attacked from behind and the climactic battle features a gigantic alien queen armed with a giant laser gun chasing a schoolbus full of children. If you didn't check out your brain at the register it's entirely your own fault you didn't enjoy this.

On an objective scale this shyt is probably a 2/5 if you're being generous but on a fukkery entertainment scale this shyt is a 7/5 so make of that what you will.:russ:
:russ:

This exactly sums it up for me, like the movie was bad to ok, but I kinda really enjoyed it :russ:
