Bursting with spectacular special effects and exhilarating action sequences, Occupation: Rainfall unfolds two years into an intergalactic invasion of Earth, as survivors fight back in a desperate ground war. While casualties mount by the day, the resistance--along with some unexpected allies--uncovers a plot that could bring the war to a decisive end. Now, with the alien invaders hell-bent on making our planet their new home, the race is on to save mankind.

Kermode & Mayo's Film Review

A huge amount of special effects sequences on such limited budget...but it's rubbish.

On a purely technical level it delivers the goods pretty effectively; there are enough explosions and flying bodies to pass muster.

Rated: 3.5/5

Sometimes even cheesy movies can be a perfect distillation of the zeitgeist.

Rainfall comes some way short of success, but it looks beautiful and tries hard...

Dread Central

With strong central performances and blockbuster-level visual effects, Occupation: Rainfall is a hugely entertaining viewing experience.

Rated: 4/5

If Occupation was Red Dawn but Strayan, Occupation: Rainfall is Independence Day and the post-apocalyptic bits of The Terminator, but Strayan.

Dumb through and through. And then they throw in comedy relief and in the worstvway and with the worst timing. I kind of thought they were going for B rated sci-fi? Just stupid about what you would have expected from the sci-fi channel of 20 years ago. It doesn't even have closure. The bad guys are good guys for some reason. Never told why. Just stupid.

Good special effects Confusing storyline Hard to tell good guys from bad guys. Ridiculous sub plots, dont release the alien killing weapon to avoiding killing a few hundred friendly aliens? Silly world building, Alien shock troops invincible to gunshots and lasers go down with a hard push or a punch. And they fight hand to hand with lazer swords, really?? All in all a loser. Your time is too valuable for this one.

Rosana B

Gostei do sequencial, entretanto inferior tecnicamente ao anterior, além de não termos o malfadado efeito surpresa do primeiro (o que geralmente faz nos perder o encanto em sequências de filme de suspense/terror), mais explosões, tiros e bombas que o primeiro, o roteiro menos gracioso e emotivo, os aliens são fofinhos e mais simpáticos que os humanos... Nada enormemente atrativo, passa quase despercebido... Regular...

Rated 3 out of 5 stars
