What can I say, 9 for the trailer and 4 for the movie. I have to give the intriguing trailer a big round of applause. If you have seen the trailer before, I can guarantee you will be so bloody curious to watch the movie itself (exactly what happened to CLASH OF THE TITANS earlier thiz year). They were editing the trailer so well. But the fact is: Something so wrong is going on. Next Thing I can say, A-Class Special Effects collide with C-Class Actors. The movie directed by Special Effects experts, Colin and Greg Strause, who also directed AVPR: ALIENS VS. PREDATOR-REQUIEM: (2007). The premise is mysterious at the beginning, one night at 4:27 A.M. strange blue beams appear on the City of Los Angeles. It is the first initial of the extraterrestrial invasion. The storyline only follows one point of view (just like CLOVERFIELD, 2008), the movie focuses on a group of certain people and what happens next to them. They are Eric Balfour, Scottie Thompson, Donald Faison, David Zayas and others. There is a scene that I think it is a rip-off from WAR OF THE WORLDS (2005), when Terry meets a stranger and the alien is sneaking around to hunt them furtively with its long and creepy tentacles. The last thing I can say, The Sky is wreck and The Line is flat. Approaching the end of the movie, the story-telling is getting more and more poignantly absurd. For example (Spoiler Alert!), the octopus look-alike alien which could chase and destroy jet aircraft and even sophisticated Stealth fighter jet, can be defeated by bare-hand and an axe. Strause brothers are really getting on my nerves, while they underestimate our intelligence with their absurd story. There are several of them. However there is something that maybe you wont realize. Everyone and most critics thought that thiz movie was a monstrous failure, but what you did not realize that thiz movie made with budget of ONLY $10 million (estimated). To be certain, they made up some real money here. The tagline on thiz movie is: Do not look up, well, do not even look at the film itself. Next time if aliens invade the theaters like thiz again, I would rather go home and sleep on my bed. Do not waste 92 minutes of your life.

I'm not going to spend too much time on this review because this film has already taken too much time from my life. Needless to say, this is one of the worst films I've ever seen. It is a clear case of a studio "taking the piss". The story is weak/non-existent, the screenplay pedantic - like "Machete" (though I don't think it's intended), the directing and acting is third rate, and the action boring (my wife fell asleep). Even some of the special effects are reminiscent of 1950s sci-fi. Be prepared to see miniature B2 bombers flopping around the screen like butterflies in the wind. They spent $500k filming this and the rest of a low budget on special effects (some of which were adequate). In any case, I'll be boycotting Universal Pictures for a few months, as well as the producers/directors (Colin and Greg Strause) and writers (Joshua Cordes and Liam O'Donnell) permanently. I don't know why Scottie Thompson would let herself be associated with this mess.… Expand

Stank .. don't even waste your time watching it for "free" when it gets released to broadcast in 6 months... I want my money back! Hmm I got to come up with 150 characters for this review! What can you say! Its a greedy nasty Corporate Hollywood rip off! Did not even come close to the promise of the trailer! Should have read a few reviews before I wasted my money!

Worst movie I have seen in ten years.The only reason I didn't walk out was that my wife fell asleep 20 minutes into it and I didn't want to wake her up. I won't spoil the ending for anyone foolish enough to go see this piece of crud, but it was one of the worst endings to a film I have ever seen, if not the worst. It was like someone came along and surgiclly removed anything that could have been considered plot, and replaced it with pointless filler. Also, the acting and directing were on a junior high school level.… Expand

The worst movie of the year. I have nothing positive to comment on this movie except for the CGI. the cast is horrible with stone cold acting, running around the penthouse for an hour devoured by aliens. The story is uninspired with a preposterous ending. This is a movie that has lost its way to the direct-to-home video pile.

The first 30-40 min of the movie held my interest and I thought it was going to something special, but the ending, with its Matrix style of the aliens need the humans for food/energy thing, really throw me off. Writers had 3/4 of a movie, and just winged it from there.

Almost the whole first trailer was absent from the movie. They never addressed NASA sending out a communication like in the trailer and the press reporting on it. That trailer had me very excited and I got a different movie in the theater. What a waste of money and time.

No need for a spoiler warnings because you've seen it all before in much, MUCH better movies. Incoherent and illogical don't begin to describe the "plot." The special effects that supposedly make this dreck watchable were cutting edge in 1985 -- seriously.

Without a doubt the worst movie I've seen this year. It's difficult to get an alien apocalypse movie wrong honestly, you just need some cool aliens, combat scenes and explosions, plus a little bit of drama wouldn't go amiss either. This movie is avoid of everything but the first point and the lack of budget is obvious, with limited variety in the alien types and special effects. The actors are universally poor, as is the sorry excuse for a script. The entire first 30 minutes of the movie are completely redundant and each character might as well be a cardboard cutout with one defining characteristic each. It is impossible to feel anything for these people when the acting is two dimensional and the script doesn't deliver a single line of good dialogue the entire time. The characters don't go anywhere, which is appropriate considering the movie doesn't either. This horrendous thing would not be out of place in the line-up of SyFy Original Movies, though it would do said line-up a disservice (consider that for a moment). This movie makes Independence Day look like the greatest science fiction work ever created. Don't lookup.… Expand

This movie was, by far, one of the biggest pieces of crap that has ever been released. There was absolutely no plot. There was no storyline to follow, and the ending was, without a doubt, the worse. My husband and I have no clue what we just saw, or why this movie was even made, Horrible. I was seriously tempted to ask for a Manager and request a refund. Actually, they should have paid us to sit there and watch this piece of dung.… Expand

No plot, no character development, poor acting. Even the special effects were nothing groundbreaking. Seriously, save your money. Worst movie I have seen in 2010.

Nothing special here, there isnt anything in this movie I havent already seen in alien invasion movies. The acting is below average and some of the characters can get a bit annoying at times. Judging from the reactions throughout the theatre most of the other audience members felt the same way. You can go see this movie if you want to but dont complain when you realized you just wasted 10 bucks on garbage.… Expand

The tag-line for this film should be... Got ten dollars and 2 hours of your life to waste? Then come on in. Man I don't know what they were smoking when they made this movie but I hope it ended their screen writing career.

I'm a huge sci-fi fan, but this movie left me with a feeling of emptiness. No storyline progression at all. A+ for special effects, but even the massive special FX budget couldn't make up for the horrible casting/acting. The end of the movie had me laughing. Such a waste of money - on all sides.

I cannot fathom the fact that the advertisements basically describe a different movie than I seen in the theaters. How is that legal? I was so excited for the movie that it makes me sick that I waisted the money for a movie night on this piece of crap. So here goes, I will never invest in another "Brothers Strauss" movie again. I also think that Universal needs to be addressed. Since when did they find it right to invest in crap. Not since "M Night Shamalala's The Happening" has a movie disapointed so much. I will never invest in his crap again either. Good luck Brothers Strauss in your endeavors, At least you wont fool me or anyone else I know again. This movie should of been call "Crapline".… Expand

Let's see. Let's take a hit like Independence Day, mix it with some really bad scifi from "movies" like District 9 and War of The Worlds (Tom Cruise edition), throw in just a twist from Paranormal Activity and we'll give it a myseterious name with a great trailer. Don't fall for it. Biggest waste of money I've spent on a movie in recent memory.

I cannot figure out how this movie made it to the big screen. Could have fooled me if you told me this was a high school project. Terrible movie, weak 1st grade plot, cheesy awful dialogue and acting, and fake artificial special effects I could have done better with any movie making app on my computer. I regret not walking out of the theater within the first 20 minutes like I was about to but stayed out of sheer curiosity to see how bad it could be and laugh at how bad it was. I pray that God guides all the people involved with putting this atrocity in front of audiences to retire from the entertainment business and maybe try the fast-food industry.… Expand

Skyline borrowed heavily from Cloverfield but added some twisted elements of its own that is plausable if executed right. Unfortunately, directors Collin/Greg Strause's (Aliens vs Predator) misunderstanding of the plot lead to an excruciating hour and a half of watching blue lights and funny looking aliens. Adding to the bad side of the movie came the dialogue. Laughable yet not funny at all, first time writer Joshua Cordes did an amazing job of trying to earn himself a Razzie award for Worst Screenplay. I can't say anything about the cast because apocalypse movies' cast is always the unknowns and are usually bad. But given all the negatives, I think the visual and CGI effects are a bit wonderful. With everything else aside, this is one of the better effects of the year. With admirable visual effects and CGI, Skyline still failed to deliver a good storyline and solid dialogue.… Expand

This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. In the Sparks song "Cool Places"(an ode to Los Angeles), which featured Jane Wiedlin on vocals, Ron Mael and the ex-Go-Go's bassist sang about going to these cool places and never wanting to "cool down, cool down, cool, cool, cool." After all, Los Angeles is a town unlike any other. It's not Ontario, that's for sure. Concerning these places, the refrain "I wanna go" becomes a sentiment that moviegoers can relate with. "Skyline" is not Bruce McDonald's "Pontypool", the great 2009 Canadian indie whose action, brain-eating action, was also confined to one set. That zombie film had characters, especially Grant Mazzy, the disc jockey played by Stephen McHattie. "Skyline" has zombies all right, but they're not the aliens with an appetite for grey matter; they're the actors, all of whom deliver performances that rival porno ones. We root for these boring people to escape the confinements of Terry's high-rise apartment, because the cabin fever is mutual. We stare longingly at the theater exits. We could have stayed home and watched this sort of bargain basement sci-fi on basic cable. "Skyline" is not a wide release-caliber film. Jamal(Eric Balfour), new to L.A., along with his girlfriend Elaine(Scottie Thompson), starts the ball rolling when he proposes the idea of going to a relatively cool place: the marina, where the boats are, where he believes the aliens aren't. The aliens hate water, he theorizes, so they mobilize: five people, two cars, but before "Skyline" has a chance to get into gear, the car of adulterers(Terry and Denise, played by Donald Faizon and Crystal Reed) is demolished by an alien, just as it emerges from the parking garage. No road trip; no cool places, even relatively cool ones like the marina, because "Skyline" doesn't have the budget for a full-fledged escape from Los Angeles. Whereas "Pontypool" evoked the 1938 radio broadcast of H.G. Wells' "War of the Worlds" by insinuating the action via audio, "Skyline" projects its invasion on a flat-screen television, as a result of the link-up between the telescope and the monitor. Both films re-imagine a scenario in which the Mercury Theater's rendering of the alien invasion, narrated by Orson Welles, was real. Appropriately enough, "Pontypool" had a captivating voice to convey the attack, while "Skyline" lets the action speak for itself, fodder for the screen, as the US military's fight with the enemy gets translated into visuals, turning the speaking-challenged actors into an auxiliary audience. Ultimately, Jamal does end up in a cool place(climate-wise), the alien spacecraft, along with his pregnant girlfriend, once these discriminating extra-terrestrials get their fill of brains, metropolitan brains(L.A. and New York) exclusively, according to the time-log: no Bible Belt brains, no Dustbowl brains, no Appalachian Mountain brains are not good eatin' by these otherworldly creatures' lofty standards. "Skyline" ends with a "minimum of chit-chat", as Jamal, whose consciousness now survives in an alien body, makes human contact with Elaine through touch, like some dystopian version of "E.T.: The Extra-Terrestrial". Just when things finally, FINALLY, gets remotely interesting(staving off a zero rating), "Skyline" ends, strangely enough, on a high note.… Expand

The effects were surprisingly good for such a low budget film... But apart from that don't expect much from this film. It feels as if you were watching a bad tv show most of the time. Bad script, bad production, bad actors...

When I watch this trailer,it was so awesome that I would like to see this movie and before when I saw this movie,it's so retarded that this movie is a joke that couldn't been done with the special effects and the plot is so unexplainable. Skyline is a retarded movie that they have lots of cliches and ripping off into War of the Worlds and Independence Day that it mixed together for a crappy b-movie. The effects are so much blue that even they offer special effects that it belong to James Cameron. The characters are complete joke that is so lame that each character has saying a lot of cliches and a bad dialogue. The story is so untold that they couldn't explain what aliens are come from and why they need the brain to control them? At the end is very dumb that it look like a video game of Gears of War and the action scenes that again rips off into Transformers and it sucks the movie so bad it's completely RIPS OFF!!! Please don't watch this movie and it's bad that you saw this cool trailer like The Last Airbender is,you'll be screwed to get your money back.… Expand

This movie gets one point for the special effects. The rest of the movie sucks. The whole movie nearly takes place inside the apt building where mysterious lights land and end up being an alien race on a brain eating agenda .. the movie never changes scenes except for the end and a point where the people try to escape....there is no story actually but a moral of you should not pay movie ticket price for this crap… Expand

Nothing was really appealing about this movie other than one scene where a ferrari gets crushed by a giant alien foot. Other than that this movie was disgusting, lame, and it had horrible acting and pointless scenes which all end up worth nothing. Don't go see this movie.

Without doubt one of the worst films I have ever seen. WHO decided this should be made? Film is full of effects, no actual story and all set in a bloody apartment building, and the ending is actually beyond the ridiculous.

TERRIBLE AVOID.

They should have picked up the unmanned vehicle clash scene and they messed it up. I didn't hate it because of the actors (who can't act if their lives were on the line), I hated it because they did the military intervention so terribly. Whoever says it was like starcraft is STUPID. Waste of money and a definite waste of time it was. Battle: Los Angeles is the movie to see. At least they got it right.… Expand

Unwatchable BS. No storyline. No plot. Cheesy, schmultzy just plain bad. Can't help but feel sorry for he actors. DO NOT WATCH! As Boring As Staring At a White Wall. Can't call this rubbish Sci-fi. It's too insulting to the genre.

Pretty boring at times. Almost dozed off at one point. Disappointing over all. As exciting as the trailers for this film looked I definitely wish I had waited for it to hit Pay Per View at home.

I went to Skyline with very low expectations, and it didn't even meet that low standard. I expected a predictable storyline and so-so acting, and the movie delivered there. However, I also expected top-notch special effects, but it just never delivered. Also, violating basic laws of physics in a movie is rarely a good idea.

The movie gets a "3" instead of a "1" because it was laughably bad, not just plain bad (e.g. "Signs").… Expand

This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. Watching most of the movie, I was thinking they got many things right. Much better than cloverfield, which left me sick. I kept expecting the second half of the movie to pay off. It didn't. [spoilers now] Nuking the ship - it killed them! (I was thinking this is the first alien that ever died to a nuke.) but it was just a tease. The ending... for a big budget movie, I would have sworn the studio forced them to add that worthless ending. As it is, it took a low key movie that I might have rated a 5, and lowered it to a 2.… Expand

This is the worst movie in history. Other than the last airbender. Between bad actors and even worse filming. This movie will go down in history as how to perform cinematic suicide.

THIS MOVIE IS THE WORST MOVIE I HAVE EVER SEEN....HANDS DOWN. I HAVE SEEN BETTER ON THE SY-FY CHANNEL. I WOULD BE ASHAMED TO BE ASSOCIATED WITH THE FILM AS AN ACTOR, DIRECTOR AND MORE SPECIFICALLY WRITER. SPECIAL EFFECTS DON'T MAKE A MOVIE - A STORY LINE WOULD BE HELPFUL - THIS ONE SUCKED.

This is most definitely the worst movie I have ever seen. No depth of characters, little background, most of the movie is set in an apartment with scared people quivering for their life.

Where do I begin? This film is sloppy. Shoddy camera work, uneeded glares, and a plot so full of holes that is resembles Swiss cheese that has be attacked by a cat. Our characters are barely there, both in an acting sense and in characterization, you could have put some cardboard cut outs in their place for most of the movie. This movie wants to be a summer blockbuster, but just can stand up to the big boys. The effects are passible on some accounts, but when a movie that focuses on its effects is this weak it is time to find another occupation. It is good to look at for a minute, but don't look to hard-you'll see the cracks...… Expand

this movie wasn't that horrible ; it was horrible but it wasn't that horrible. While i was watching this movie i wanting i was expected more. I hope they don't make a part two. One of the worst movie of the year. I would suggest anybody to go see this movie. They did an okay job directing this movie. This movie had an awful screenplay. It only going get worst. Please don't make a sequel to this movie. I give this movie an extra point because they did a fine job directing this movie shooting this movie in the director apt complex. nice job with the special effect.… Expand

As far as the suspense goes, it leads you to nowhere. Too many War of the Worlds references are included too. It has also the weirdest, silliest ending which is more, well, weird and silly than you imagine.

Take District 9 and Cloverfield, minus the character development, acting, plot, and drama, and you get this. It was pretty terribad- but I like a cheesy movie here and there. The problem with this is that it takes itself too seriously. When I think of how this came to be I imagine someone made some cool looking monsters, and said, 'hey, lets use these for...something.."
The whole 'infection' didnt need to be there, unles sit was their way of showing the lead guy 'fighting back' to keep his senses. If thats what they were aiming for they failed. And why is JD in this movie?
So, points for cool looking monsters, points for aliens in the movie, points for JD....thats 3.
And omg was the ending lame (must protect female- HULK SMASH!) Like, if there were some character development it'd make sense, but there wasnt...The lead male started out lookin like a tool, and never changed till the very end.… Expand

This movie took about two hours of my life that I can never get back. Though the first scene of the movie is intriguing the movie quickly derails into a morass of hiding in a penthouse, being squashed by aliens, being sucked up into the sky by aliens, and a final scene that leaves the movie watcher wanting to throw a rotten tomato at the screen in disgust. The acting was marginal at best (the script gave them nothing to work with) and the CGI seemed absurd. All in all I would call this the worst movie I saw in all of 2010. STAY AWAY!… Expand

Honestly one of the worst films I have ever seen. The plot is boring and the actors are atrocious. The film relied on special effects to much. The ending was so frustrating because it should off finished 10 minutes before it did and it didn't fit in at all with the rest of the film. They set it up for a sequel which will probably be as horrific as this one. Please save your money and don't see this.… Expand

Just saw this movie on dvd and i thought it would be better than that. In reallity, its crap. The effects of the movie looked really nice but the overall scenes were dull and poorly done. It was hard for me to care abbout the characters in any way and their stories were cliched from every B movie on the market. Giant ships and monsters were cool to look at but brought no life to the film. Then that "surprise ending" was awful. Im all for films that just want to entertain, but this one doesn't.… Expand

Skyline...when you first watch the trailer you think, well hey this might be a good sci-fi movie..right? WRONG, bad actors, cheesy, horrible effects, idea is nothing new, feels like a knockoff of War of the Worlds or something. Didnt keep me guessing whats next, didnt hold my full attention it was just another sci-fi movie that people will forget exists in a year or less.

Given that this had zero positive critic review I don't know why I watched this. Now I wished I hadn't. It was terrible. First, you have to sit through about 20 minutes of incredibly corny dialogue. The rest of the movie was just as bad with bad acting and a terrible screenplay. It even had that cliched guy yelling "nooooooooo" in slow motion. How do movies like this get made? Worse yet, it had a stupid ending that implied that a sequel is coming Noooooooo.… Expand

I only have one question? How did this film ever get made!!! This movie was trying way to hard to be cool and just didn't get the job done. Skyline, you get an F for FAIL!!!!!

Acting: Bad
Storyline: Dumb
Characters: Token

This is a perfect example of when a film's visual effects far outpace the screenplay. The DVD container emphasizes in large font that the visual effects are from the same guys who worked on Avatar, Iron Man 2, and 300! What the container does not say is that the screenwriters from those films did not work on Skyline. Aliens descend from the sky and everything which occurs afterwards, the audience sees from the perspective of a particular group of people trapped in a Los Angeles penthouse. Why this group? Aliens are everywhere and we have to see the events through the eyes of people we cannot stand? The characters are one-dimensional and very obnoxious for most of the time. Why did they waste what must have been an enormous visual effects budget on a story which appears to still be in draft form? Did the producers feel the story in Avatar or District 9 was too complicated? Stay away from this movie!

P.S. The Air Force goes up against the aliens at points and I hope they were using some top secret drones; otherwise, those were B-2s pulling 9 G's and outmaneuvering enemy fighters. Also, an F-22 crashes and 'bounces' right over the main characters. *smacks forehead*… Expand

The movie had potential. I liked how they attempted to portray events from purely the characters perspective. I agree there were a lot of random scenes that were quite pointless to what little story there was. The attempts at character background were somewhat shoddy, but not altogether terrible. The CGI depicted the action and certainly drew you into the show. I think how the characters responded to the crisis and invasion was not portrayed realistically. I know I would have been going door to door in all the apartments looking for weapons or something useful to defend myself. They just stayed in that one apartment the WHOLE time. I would have ventured out at night to try and escape to the sea or at least tried to improve my situation as much as I could. The fact that the aliens were practically impervious to all of the attempts to destroy them quite frankly was retarded. It certainly promoted a somber depressing theme and frustrated me. I would've liked to have seen the few uprisings and military attacks to have made some sort of impact on the aliens. On that note I found it surprising that these aliens with all their technology were thwarted by shades or a simple kitchen counter in their attempts to locate humans. I mean come on, if you can rebuild an entire spacecraft in a few hours after being nuked, but you can see past some shades? What was the point for these aliens to invade anyway? They needed brains to run their biomechanical creations? That's pretty lame. That's about 7 billion brains....I think those ships would have to be a little bigger and that it would take a lot longer to clean out L.A. then a few days. I guess the brains, for the most part, lost their individuality and independence once they were transferred to their new hosts/bodies in a sort of "borg" like fashion. That does not help this already handicapped movie in anyway. I think we all like movies to have some sort of closure, and that attempts to end movies without ending them only frustrate viewers and demonstrates a lack of creativity or ability to put together a cohesive story. These "endings" make me think that the writers/producers could only come up with a bunch of noncontiguous scenes that they thought would be really "cool" to create, but then when they've created them they don't know how to connect them. That is my very long rant on a not so terrible B movie that had its moments in bringing me into the movie, but for the most part left me high and dry in terms realistic portrayal, lack of cohesive story, and fundamentally flawed ending on all points. But hey the nuking of that alien mothership was pretty sweet. I just need to remember not to lock myself in an apartment next time there is an alien invasion.… Expand

Some of the worst acting ive ever seen Jared "JRock" is the biggest tool alive. This was probably the worst movie ive ever seen! Extremely predictable and makes no sense. Im mad i wasred 480 Microsoft points on this turd of a movie! The acting is so unnatural like a bad SciFi channel movie. Dont waste your time!!

This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. Passable special effects for the movie's budget is the only thing going for this failure at storytelling. Characters have little to do with what's going on around them and stand around like props waiting to be struck from the set by CGI tentacles. I found myself vaguely interested by the invasion strategy: using light to lure victims into arms reach, but eventually decided it was a little redundant since the aliens are perfectly capable of getting to you and there's not much of a human defense against them. My next bug-a-boo in movies of this genre is a poorly crafted rationale for the protagonist's ability to fight back. I'm lead to assume Jarrod (Eric Balfour) is so somehow special by sheer virtue of his good looks and...neat tattoos because he got super-powers instead of being brainwashed by the alien lure AND was able to transfer his consciousness into one of the alien husks after being 'harvested.' At it's best Skyline is a portfolio for FX on a shoestring budget, at worst, a 94 minute time sink.… Expand

Skyline is the absolute worst movie I have seen in theaters. This piece of crap has a horrible plot, corny diologue and Horrific acting. I would not recommend this horrible movie to anyone, just aweful.

How could people like this crap? I never heard of this movie until just a few days ago. A friend of mine told me about it and he thought it was terrible, but I checked it out anyway because I am a huge SciFi fan. After watching this, I wanted to shoot myself! What a piece of s**t! Every aspect of the movie was so freaking stupid. Hell, I'd rather watch Battlefield Earth than watch this mess again. Jesus, what a waste of my time!… Expand

This movie is so over the garbage, the actors really dint even felt that they were acting,looking like dorks that never did a movie. The sci fi aliens looked more like the 80's clay monsters, the end of the movie really made me laugh, plain horrible .

skyline our first encounter our last stand dont look up thats right dont even look up at the screen this movie sucks very boring story thats never explained propaly too short bad acting the effects are very good that is the only thing good about this movie brothers strause make a decent movie your effects are good but your story telling sucks

Pretty retarded,bad story line and the alien crap and copied War of Worlds.The alien ships had bad design and the "burning light" crap was a horrible concept of the also horrible movie.

Boring. Amateurish. And miles away from being frightening except maybe how frightening the acting was. It shows that all the budget went to the spaceships and nothing else. There's really not much more to say except that it was a waste of time really.

Very disappointing, after seeing the trailers i thought this could be great, i should have listened to the critics though! Great CGI effects, bad script, bad acting, bad ending.

Finally a movie that sucks more than Battlefield: Earth. This was one of the worst movies I have ever seen and I mean ever. There was nothing good about this movie, the plot was horrid, the camera work was poo, and the acting was horrid as well. I kept watching, hoping it was going to get better, but it didn't.

If you have ever seen the remake of â

I felt bored and distraught after about 30 minutes in. A decent synopsis Skyline had, but might just be better if it was made into a first person shooter video game.

Yes it is a '0' and not worth rating at all. The worst plot with the some terrible action. It's like skipping through Independence Day but this Film is 100x worse (I like Independence Day, one of favourite movies which I would not skip through) but what the hell is this. It is good I didn't come to the Cinema to see this and it was on TV otherwise I would of been extremely pissed.

There are a lot of jokes to be made about the twilight series. However, I think now its best to laugh unintentionally at the cheesy lines than the jokes made from this movie. I mean seriously, this Friedberg-Seltzer film (this film really suck) 'expects' us to laugh. The jokes don't come off as funny and the actors aren't necessarily helping even though they're only imitating the characters from twilight. It almost feels as if every joke had a guy whacking the drum. .3/5
*Jenn Proske is the only reason why anyone of you should go. She imitates Bella so perfectly. If you replaced Kristen Stewart with her, you wouldn't be able to tell the difference.… Expand

Terrible acting, terrible directing, terrible story. Terrible movie! One of the worst I have ever seen! How did this movie not win all the razzies! Truly awful!

So um yeah, great FX, of course that's what made me want to watch it from the trailers in the first place. But... it all goes down hill from there, high school drama club acting (minus Donald Faison who always delivers) pathetic plot that just never gets going and then drops you like a bad habit and an ending that leaves you with a nasty taste in your mouth. I get that the Strause dudes are trying to lay the ground work for a series but I desperately wish I could take back the 94 minutes of my life I wasted. Its drivel like this that gives the genre a bad rep.… Expand

I had to think a little bit before rating this move, was about to rate it 0 but I laughed so but so damn much that it'd be unfair being that mean! Seriously, I think it was worth the budget (yes, I dared go seeing it at cinema) since it was so hilarious I nearly wet my pants.

Well in short, I feel like I've lost 92 minutes of my life. Skyline had a good idea and failed to make it work, bad camera angles, bad acting and riddled with cliches. And to be honest, the CGI wasnt even as good as I expected. The trailer of the film promised something more than this, but I was bitterly disappointed.

This movie serves as a perfect example of how no amount of acting or special effects can compensate for a terrible concept. I say that because just about every facet of this film is solid in terms of cinema. The acting is very good, the effects are superb, the plot develops well, decent dialogue, etc. The problem is, the foundation of the story is terrible. Aliens that are essentially indestructible and are somehow powered by human brains. Then when they are destroyed their giant blue orb of light somehow puts everything back together? I'm sorry but no amount of suspension of disbelief can get me through that sequence. Honestly, don't waste your time with it.… Expand

Skyline was the worst reviewed movie of 2010 and not without cause. Basically it's a different version of War of The Worlds, with less of a storyline, and a ridiculous ending. The sad part of this whole thing is that the movie started out really good. After the event, I was on the edge of my seat, and then it all goes downhill from there. Eric Balfour is such a good actor, but he's constantly being cast in these subpar movies. I don't understand why nobody wants to offer him a role in a major motion picture. Once again he's very good and engaging in a movie that just crashes and burns. The special effects were cool, the acting wasn't bad, but the story stinks and the further into it you get, the more you keep asking yourself, why am I still watching this?… Expand

Skyline has some of the worst acting ever put on screen. The only reason why it isn't a 0 is because of the twist at the end, so it wasn't predictable. Problem the ending was so discombobulated it made my head dizzy.

Was this movie bad or what ? As if AVP was terrible, good grief look at what a mess this film was. The plot was basically was do what your not supposed to do and get killed for it.

Not even the somewhat impressive special effects can sweep this movie's horrific acting and storytelling under the proverbial rug.

There's a scene towards the end of the movie where the main character says something like this: "What are you going to do when all the blinds fall down? It's not exactly like we have a lot more bed sheets!" It was in the moment where I began shaking my head in complete dismay as to what the hell I was watching. The screenplay, the cast, the acting, everything was just terrible. The effects were the only thing going for this film, but even those were either blurry or hidden by bright lights. Skyline is horrible and one of the worst of 2010.… Expand
