Cubussoli Very very predictable, including the post credit scene !!!

Adeel Hail Unshakable, witty and deeply felt, the film will be paying emotional dividends for a long, long time.

Matho The biggest problem with this movie is it’s a little better than you think it might be, which somehow makes it worse. As in, it takes itself a bit too seriously, which makes most of the movie feel kind of dull.

Dana An old-fashioned movie made with new-fashioned finesse.

juneebuggy Well I made it through this bizarre western/sci-fi mash up, that's about all I can say about this. It's a definite B-movie with the aliens reminiscent of (copied from) 'War Of The Worlds' only on a smaller and much cheaper scale as is the whole tone of this weird movie.It follows (best I can figure) a condemned outlaw (train robber Sam Phoenix -James Marsters) who's eminent hanging is abruptly halted by an invasion of aliens. Outlaws and townspeople must then join forces to survive as the ragtag group find sanctuary in a church. Yeah this was a tough movie to get through. I found the female gunslinger/bounty hunter character super annoying but was strangely fascinated by James Marsters' hair which look great throughout. 05.13

BakuryuuTyranno The concept of the movie interested me but unfortunately the film itself while decent still isn't something memorable. Technically it's better than the average syfy movie but... that's not really a compliment.The characters actually are slightly deeper than most stock archetypes you'd find inhabiting similar film scripts. Unfortunately long before it's necessary too many sign the "doomed" roster, and honestly knowing who's going to survive or not takes away from the film too much.Interesting creatures. Unfortunately that only means we're not going to be seeing them appear in one of the occasional good syfy movies. Ultimately I was hoping for another film like "Aztec Rex" where the cheesy scenario and interesting characters in danger provide an entertaining film; apparently it wasn't to be.

eric montoya OK, now first off this is a movie set in a 1800's mining community in Colorado.About 20 mins into the film a 50's era Saturday night special is produced by the female bounty hunter character....umm OK....this wasn't the worst thing as about an hour into the film a few NICKEL PLATED COLT PYTHONS pop up!?!?! i mean really folks..whomever the weaponsmaster was on this one failed.Also the creatures(they look very good but the animators re ran too many of the same animations)are seemingly bulletproof accept for a small inch opening in their FACE which they widen to about 2 feet when they go to eat...not a hard target at all for someone with a 357 magnum...which brings me to our next talk point...45 mins or so into the film the main chars hold up in the sherrifs dept to escape the creatures where they then break into the sheriff's gun case and retrieve a few shotguns and winchester lever action rifles which were all well placed for the era....but the point is NONE OF THE PEOPLE LEAVE THE BUILDING WITH ANY RIFLES WHEN THEY RUN! the rest of the movie is a pistol extravaganza when there are higher caliber and more accurate weapons just a few feet away...The acting was OK for what the actors had to work with....the director seems to want us to believe there were no ugly women in the old west...there's a thin sub plot of uranium mining and radiation poisoning but thats not here or there.Also some odd voice overs were poorly mixed into the soundtrack...overall an odd film with a strange premise but watchable.

MartianOctocretr5 In the Old West of 1892, a bank robber is about to become guest of honor at a neck tie party. Suddenly, giant metallic scorpion type things appear and break up the party. But just when this looks like it will be another body-count sideshow, an interesting story emerges.The budget isn't extravagant, but much is accomplished with what they have. The style of the story is a tip of the hat to the vision of Jules Verne (who is mentioned in the film), and it shows some real imagination. The invaders also look to be of the sort H.G. Wells might cook up after a bad nightmare. The plot draws you in, with an intriguing mystery of just what do these rampaging creatures want, why are they here, and where did they come from. The film wisely withholds some of that, and releases just enough information to the characters and you at a very well constructed pace to keeps things interesting. It isn't even too clear if these things are machines or organic life forms until deep into the movie.A weakness might be that the characters are written as western clichés, but they are developed in an adequate fashion. The acting is actually superior, and most of the cast rises above any limitations the script gives their roles. CGI effects are done well enough to make these hostile invaders threatening. The dialog supports the action, and doesn't fall into the cornball quips trap that so many films do. The ending is perhaps too abrupt, with no epilogue given at all.Overall, not a bad watch.
