Skyline...or no story line?

I caught this movie with Hammy 3 and EA last week.

The verdict ? Think we were better off just watching the trailer.

The movie appears like it just started from the mid section.

There was no story build up.

There was no storyline as to why the aliens came…we were left to some guesswork at the end of the movie…*hmmm…ahhh…they needed our brains to survive… I think…?*

The characters were all not properly developed. It looked like the director and screenwriter just decided to get some “not so well-known guys” together and do a college project.

The movie looked like it was made up from few other movie scenes, e.g

*Scene where the spaceship appears from amongst the clouds – just like Independence Day

*Scene where the fighter jets fighting with the aliens – just like Independence Day…and maybe bits of Star Wars

AAHHH…and not forgetting Cloverfield too!

But guess they probably spent ¾ of their budget on the trailer and special effects that they could not afford a better screenwriter.

Or this was probably one of Hollywood’s filler movie….
