Kevin Maher Times (UK) ... bar a few set-piece action scenes, this is mostly illogical, second-rate muck. Rated: 2/5 Jan 19, 2018 Full Review Peter Bradshaw Guardian A slightly tired invasion. Rated: 2/5 Jan 18, 2018 Full Review Nigel Andrews Financial Times Whenever the mothership starts whirring, or its mutant metallic spawn work their warlike mischief, it's quite a lot of fun. Rated: 3/5 Jan 17, 2018 Full Review Andrew Todd Birth.Movies.Death. 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. Sep 1, 2019 Full Review Edward Porter Sunday Times (UK) 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. Rated: 3/5 Jan 30, 2018 Full Review MaryAnn Johanson Flick Filosopher 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. Rated: 1/5 Jan 19, 2018 Full Review Read all reviews

C B 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”. Rated 4 out of 5 stars 09/14/24 Full Review Catherine G Great sci-fi plot, good action scenes. Special effects were outstanding. Really enjoyed this movie (and the sequel!) Rated 5 out of 5 stars 08/26/24 Full Review Christine L 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. Rated 5 out of 5 stars 04/15/24 Full Review Shuckahosee R Ok other than the dialogue, I actually enjoyed the storyline and the action scenes. Russia cinema did a really good job on this movie. Rated 3.5 out of 5 stars 09/28/23 Full Review Don J So many dumbasses in one place. I'm not sure there were two functioning brain cells in the entire plot. Rated 0.5 out of 5 stars 11/24/23 Full Review Cree A I went into this movie to have a taste at Russian movie making and culture. And I was pleasantly surprised. This movie start out as your typical hollywood teen movie. The special effects were decent, and at times superb. Especially the alien exo suits were so well edited, that I was immersed enough to feel they were really there with the actors on the field, and it was not CGI added later in post production. The movie watches more as a melo drama, rather than an action movie, and its more a social commentary in general. This is not your typical alien invasion movie and give us another take on alien first encounter which is a breath of fresh air in cinematic experience. Rated 3.5 out of 5 stars 08/22/23 Full Review Read all reviews
