having only seen (we got this at a garage sale for $1) the first 18 minutes of what i can charitably call a 'film', i can safely say, this is not just bad, but horribly awful, atrociously pathetic. so far, not one line has been uttered without even a hint of emotion, half the shots seem to have been shot through a layer of gauze (likely for atmosphere), and shots that seem taken right from E.T., CE3K, The Goonies, Poltergeist, Carrie, and yes, even Star Wars (a VERY R2D2-ish toy robot) abound. i think this movie had a budget consisting of the money saved from a week of collecting tin cans from the side of the highway.
technically speaking the director (Emmerich)seems to have done well with what little talent and budget available, though its pretty funny that he had a hand in WRITING this atrocity.
