Between two chairs I still do not understand why our Runet in general and movie sites in particular are “updated” with such nonsense, which the West has long and rightly forgotten?
This TV movie turned 100 at lunchtime, well, the truth is, 20. But this, sorry, is not cognac, which from aging in oak barrels only strengthens. Alas, the initially unvariety product called Alien Invasion only gets worse with age. Its creators, it seems, decided to sit on two chairs at once - on the "ufological" (with the "fashionable" theme of kidnapping people by aliens) and on the "soap opera", with the mandatory for the "genre" melodrama and ohmi-sighs. Such crossbreeding, by and large, is only possible for Stephen King and his best students and followers. But they forgot about the master and made their own (thought, perhaps, in spite of him). ).
What happened? Yeah, actually, nothing. Neither God’s candle nor the devil’s poker, for the desire to sit on two chairs turned into a sitting between them. In the dry remnant, we have the dullest, most protracted (and shot something for TV!) film of an incomprehensible genre: whether it is a “fantastic thriller” with elements of melodrama (again Stephen King is recalled), or it is a “soap drama” with elements of scandalous ufology (for attracting philistine attention). I think it's neither, but just a hole. The hole between the chairs.
