Very by-the-numbers gun squad vs men-in-monster suits movie. It's got its moments, but most of the ride is quite generic and cheesy for a Neil Marshall flick. Marshall has done some pretty creative things previously, but this feels like pieces and parts leftovers mixed with a very B movie script, and chalk full of gimmicky camera work. The gunfire is really tiresome with constantly repeated screen flashes and sound dubs. The monsters look like modern day versions of CHUDs. There are some good scenes from time to time but the neck breaking camera work prevents any scene glory. Its not bad for B grade, but I guess I was hoping for more.
