... bar a few set-piece action scenes, this is mostly illogical, second-rate muck.

A slightly tired invasion.

Whenever the mothership starts whirring, or its mutant metallic spawn work their warlike mischief, it's quite a lot of fun.

It's so four-quadrant in its attempts to be both gritty and funny, romantic and action-packed, that it never gets to develop significantly in any particular direction.

3/5

Though the special-effects spectacles are fine, and a few scenes even have a sense of wonder and magic, there's nothing distinctive about the movie.

1/5

It has a spectacular opening sequence, and features a few minor tweaks to alien-invasion tropes. But the teen romance at its center reduces this to a very inconsequential first contact.

Why are Russian films now scripted by 13-yr-olds? There is simply nothing attractive about "Attraction." This limp excuse for a movie is insipid, shallow, and lacking in logic, or even common sense. Do NOT waste any time on it.

The pace is perfect between action and character development. The cgi is great; romance takes you in. Plot was believable and without holes. What else could you ask for from sci-fi? I enjoyed Coma, and this was even better.

I liked the change of perspective from the tired Hollywood versions. I was surprised at the quality of the actors and cinematography.

I enjoyed the movie. Was very interesting to see science fiction from a Russian point of view. I thought it was a great movie with a good message, “they trusted us more than we trusted ourselves”.

Great sci-fi plot, good action scenes. Special effects were outstanding. Really enjoyed this movie (and the sequel!)

Movie was a bit choppy, but worth the watch. Message and ending was delivered well, acting was great. I watch a lot of science fiction & love finding gems like this. I'm hoping part 2 is dubbed in English. Looking forward to watching it.
