The best part about this movie is that the aliens didn't overwhelm these Marines by standing out in front of them and shrugging off bullets with superior technology. These aliens would have ambushed these Marines exactly the same way with old tech. Work into a superior position, distract, pin down, flush into the kill zone. It's just a better alien invader movie. No worries about their motivation because they don't care to communicate it and the humans don't need to know. It's highly underrated as a piece of art that way. I know it doesn't read like The Hurt Locker or anything and they do have their eyerolling melodrama moments, but depicting an alien invasion this way hasn't really been done before.

For a desperate race of aliens, they sure did some major damage in a very short time. To be honest, these aliens are only slightly ahead of humans in terms of technology.

Those handheld weapons are actually surgically integrated into their arm. Their right hand is essentially a gun. Their bioelectric activity powers their weapons so that enemy combatants cannot turn their own arms against them if they capture a dead alien soldier. They also have no centralized nervous system, so shooting them in the “head” or damaging a nerve cluster won’t kill or incapacitate them outright. And their mostly gelatinous mass makes them able to absorb shockwaves that would kill a normal human being, and helps cushion their vital organ. All in all, a very efficient killing machine

Humanity has long invented laser weapons, but even the most advanced army in the world still uses the primitive concept of a boomstick. Why? Probably because firearms are still quite effective. Arming every soldier with an energy weapon would not be economically feasible. That's why we fly into space, but we still explode gunpowder inside steel tubes. Most likely, the aliens from this film adhere to the same considerations. There is no need to use high-tech weapons to kill such a fragile creature as a human. It would be too expensive.

What is so cool to me is this movie was filmed in-of- all places- Shreveport, Louisiana! I miss those days of following all the strange bright yellow signs all around Shreveport trying to figure out the codes- that are short-hand for the productions- for the folks behind the scenes. Almost every actor/actress you can name filmed SOMETHING-here post-Katrina. "The Guardian" with Costner was filmed here. "Whitehouse Down" was filmed here. Tom Cruise lived here for awhile while Katie Holmes filmed a movie. Costner supposedly LOVES the area and he has filmed three movies here. It was SO cool. I never ran into any stars but it was cool seeing the film crews all around town. It's truly amazing how many productions happened here before the tax incentives dried up. We are all intrigued to see what 50-Cent Jackson is gonna bring to our area after he established "G Unit" here. I've always heard besides the obvious financial incentives, Shreveport and the surrounding area are really a "blank canvas" for whatever the directors envision. "We" have been almost anything and anywhere you can imagine-and many I had a hard time believing! Lol. Being "Hollywood South" once was a really cool perk to living here. I'm hoping 50 brings back some of that vibe. It was new, exciting and different. I think folks might be a little impressed/surprised to see the list of movies and shows and all the actors who have been here. I know it's nothing special to many other common filming locales but it was THE NEWS here for over a decade. It was fun while it lasted. I drive by the house Sandra Bullock "lived" in for "Premonition" several times a day. It got REALLY exciting when the film crews would shut down neighborhood streets and the trucks and lights and all that popped up. Ah the memories... And for the "haves" in this area the primary reason we have a Whole Foods was to placate the many "stars" and Hollywood-types who demanded one! 🤣 I've never been there yet but if Cheetos are over $5 bucks at WALMART I can't imagine how ridiculous Whole Foods pricing must be-especially in this insane economy. I'm in the upper-income level for what I do but I'll stick to good ole Wally World and Target. Lol

The amount of heavy breathing in this movie inadvertantly turned it into a comedy

Yes because no one would heavy breathe in these situations.

What the fuck would you do if it took 100+ shots of 308 rounds from multiple guns just to kill a single alien?🤣🤣🤣

it was a cool movie tbh was interesting seeing aliens show up without much overwhelming force and fairly commensurate technology.
