(Merlin) Really excellent effects, very well-done aliens. Good mood and cinematography. Believeable acting, especially by Dakota. The relationship between Cruise's character and the character's family/wife seemed contrived to me. Also just couldn't swallow that the teenage boy was his kid... Cruise may be old enough in real life, but he doesn't look it in the movie, as well as the kid towering over him.
(Michele)Scary movie! Very intense. As always, Dakota did superb. Cruise's character is interesting. I disagree with Merlin regarding the contrived family. It's just as realistic as Kim Basinger being eminem's mom in 8-mile. It's possible. Cruise just looks young (he's a year older than me!). I guess they could have had him look like
he does in Collateral. Not just another alien movie, this one has a humanistic quality, and an awesome performance by Tim Robbins.
