In Los Angeles, a group of people wake up to find that some of their friends and loved ones are “missing.” The cause; Aliens have “snatched them” up. That is the premise for the new alien pic Skyline. Skyline is the modern day equivalent to the typical 1950’s sci-fi Bee movies. Space ships come down to earth, abduct people, make them their “slaves,” and chase those fighting for their survival. That is the epitome of this movie. Aliens begin “snatching” people up, and the stars of this film are trying to find out what happened, and as the movie advances, they end up fighting for their survival by fighting off some of the aliens pursuing them. While the special effects were impressive, there really isn’t that much more to say about this movie other than the fact that the story is unoriginal, the movie takes place primarily in an apartment building, it had that same feeling of hopelessness that the movie 2012 had, and the ending just plain sucked. That poor excuse for an ending prompted me to take a star away. Out of 4 stars, I give Skyline 1 and ½. Skyline is rated PG-13 and runs 1 hour and 40 minutes.
