Good input on the movie, I agree completely.
Massively disappointed about the sequel though, since it's not even going to be connected to the original film.
Boycott movies that involve real animal violence (& their directors)

it seems a bit underrated. I agree there are good points and bad points.
Concerning the criticism of the characters, I was annoyed at first, but it comes out it is a mild satire on the shallow lives of socialites living in Los Angeles. They are people refusing to grow up and make commitments, as evidenced in the partying, the adultery and the refusal to accept parenthood.
What could then be a point of criticism is that these characters are then punished in the worst possible way for their sins, and so it it seems old Testament in it its lecturing of morality.
However, it was refreshing to see a monster movie that takes place in day light with no shaky cam. Some of the action scenes were original too. I never thought a Stealth bomber could be so maneuverable.
I agree the music was generic, I think I've heard that score before in some other movie. Basic Instinct?

I spent the entire film thinking, "they're not going to show us what happens to the harvested_humans; are they?!?"
Never been more happy to be wrong.
Agreed, underrated.
Enjoy these words, for one day they'll be gone All of them.
