The writers of this movie started with a darker version on the invasion-of-the-world type of story, but it's clear they lost their direction and weren't sure where to take it, and certainly had no idea how to end it. And the ending - oh brother - that's where it went off the deep end. Floating brains. Yeah, that's right. What they probably intended as a feel-good ending for the film was for me total LOL comedy.

I would give this five stars if it ended about a minute sooner than it does. Much like how AI would have been a better movie had it ended at a particular point, this movie has a mostly sub par plot overall, but the ending is almost shockingly brilliant in its execution... except that it doesn't end when the screen goes black. Whether it was because test audiences did not like the original ending, and the studio got scared, or they wanted to leave it open for sequels (which they made, and it is a MUCH worse movie than this one), I don't know, but this movie is GREAT... as long as when the screen goes black you stop watching it. Otherwise, it is just another slog through a predictable ending that is more like a cliffhanger than an end and it ruins the entire premise. All in all, it is an okay movie that could use a simple edit (and one you can personally do if you have the willpower to just stop watching at the right time). Could have been great... shame.

If you haven't stabbed yourself in the ear after one hour of this ridiculously poorly scripted train wreck you will probably want to rip your eyes out after sitting through the ending. The best part is when the ragtag collection of morons not only live through a nuclear explosion just several miles away but one of them actually watched the explosion through a telescope and still has eyes left. I could have sworn Uwe Boll made this one. Utter crap.
