An Intelligent Thriller

porazzim42

I'm not usually into sci-fies, and I'll admit I only wanted to watch this one because of Johnny Depp, I actually liked this one. I happen to believe that there is life outside of Earth and this movie personified what I believe. I don't think that aliens are ugly, menacing green martians...I mean, what is an "alien" anyway? What does it look like? How do we know that they don't look like us?

When it is revealed towards the end that Johnny was an alien, it made me think about aliens inhabiting our own bodies. How do we know that there isn't an alien inside us every time we do something completely out of character? Scientists and other people think that they HAVE to figure out the truth about aliens in their need to control everything on Earth and OUTSIDE Earth. But the truth is, we don't know for sure and that's why I liked this movie. It showed us a different take on aliens.

The acting is excellent,and although the ending was pretty weak, it was still a good movie.

score 8/10
