Pros: Cool aleins, funny birthing processes

Cons: Jumpy, doesn't flow well at all

For the first 20 minutes of the movie, I didn't know what to think. The characters are introduced one by one in completely separate settings. A little humor, tragedy and a confusing conclusion and 20 minutes I can never get back. D+Next we ski...p foreward to the cabin and 4 guys in the woods. 2 of the characters find a gentleman who has a bad case of hemmoroids and take him in. Low and behold, flashbacks of "Aliens", and walla our two buddies are fighting for their lives against worms with fangs. This portion of the movie was a descent thrill, B+From there the military get's their teeth into the invasion, and although Mr. Freeman was brilliant in Deep Impact, Seven, and Shawshank; he really needs to leave the Men in Black movies to Will Smith. Tom Seizmore is completely unbelievable, and terrible. Finally since when does the entire world drink Boston's water, or use a pearl handled revolver to talk telepathically to his friend in his "mind's warehouse." C+If it wasn't for the witty banter of two of the castmembers I would have returned it to blockbuster after 20 minutes. Plain and simple this film jumps through time more than Back to the Future 2 and should only be watched if your wife is having a tupper party in the other room. Atleast then you can keep her away.
