1/10
Truly horrendous
11 January 2013
Warning: Spoilers
The first half hour is a turgid introduction to a bunch of people who will try to survive the British Independence Day. Unfortunately after this first half hour you will be so bored out of your skull you won't really care who dies or how.

About half way through the lights have gone out and Sean Pertwee appears as a crazy tramp type person who babbles some unfathomable pseudo religious drivel to the hero of the film and turns out to be the smartest person in the whole sorry mess.

Suddenly a really bad model of something rejected by Star Wars appears in the sky over some Yorkshire town and everybody goes mental. The British Army turn up in the form of two blokes with a bazooka and seemingly wearing trainers. Then we end up at JCVD's house and find out aliens are amongst us then we have a bit of kick boxing and then I think the aliens win.

With a script so threadbare it is almost invisible, acting talent that would not trouble an amoeba and special effects even Blue Peter would blush at this codswallop retails at 10 pound in my local shop.

It's about time there was a law against this tripe even being made let alone allowed to be placed on a shelf in a shop. Be very wary of the positive reviews here. Be warned this film is not even good enough to be described as 'rubbish' it is some kind of sub genre even worse.
