Painful to watch bc of how accurately it portrays humans. I’m definitely on team alien with this one.

Unrealistic, but I like the message it’s implying. Some good CGI, some that aged poorly, some decent acting too.

Great adaptation and remake as well of the original but still missing a little wow factor.

Pretty cool. But Keanu's acting abilities are under-used

Boring… haven’t seen the original but I already know it is better. The acting is bland, the story is uninteresting. Keanu deserves better

Most boring invasion movie ever!The characters are awful&have like zero chemistry! Everything is sooo slow! Could've been good but it's not!

Slow, tedious and just typical “alien invasion” - I will say the giant robot was very cool

I liked it for the most part. But the third act had a lot of problems especially the ending.

Same plot as all the other alien invasion movies. Humans are bad. This is one of the few places Keanu's stiff acting makes sense.
