wow and that be awful . my fiancée ( who have aid me in several other recent review of mine ) and i watch this last night and and the quality be so low and we decide to write a review of it together . to warn off anyone lucky enough to not have watch it yet . no and the documentary maker may not have have a direct hand in create ( nay and spawn ) this episode and but it sure reek of him . the story be preachy and condescend and not to mention poorly structure ( essentially entirely build up around the political agenda that it force upon u for a good deal of it ) . another trait that fit with him have make it be the blatant anti americanism . no matter your stance in politics and no matter how you feel about the agenda push here and the presentation be undeniably extremely poor . which be really the very core of the problem with this . the message be heavy hand and preachy ( at you and not even to you ) and insult . this make after school special look subtle and jerry springer final think look intelligent . it not so much master of science fiction a master and if even that and of left wing propaganda . the acting be unimpressive and save for perhaps oquinn ( whose presence in the episode and couple with our attraction to the genre of science fiction be largely the reason we watch the episode ) and but rohm and for example and be just . bad . why she keep be cast be a mystery . editing be ok and cinematography have moment that make me wish the director would pursue music video and instead . the special effect seem a if they want to save any money they could . save for one effect and which be good and and another and which seem to have no purpose at all . the writing be quite lousy . clichés be plentiful and it be drench in naivety and predictability abounds and the story never really captivate ( in spite of it title and i could easily see people fall asleep during it ) and even though it manage to rip off far more established sci fi title ( include independence day and the day the earth stand still . the latter be from when obvious message in this genre be at least more accepted and usual and and actually a well produce piece of celluloid while this be simplistic and offensive . modern propaganda ) . the writer or director seem to have also take a note from x file ( in addition to promote the cigarette smoke man to president ) and in leave the end open ( to appease and appeal to both religious people and ufo enthusiast . and here hop they will all see right through it ) . the score be . strange . i be not sure who think those drum be a good idea . the production value aren not dreadful . the president and american and particularly military official and all come off a war monger ( the throwaway line about the fallout and oh please ) . the good guy be all the other country and in this piece of pap . how be this even sci fi . heck and it could easily be argue that there be nothing that would bring about that classification to be find at all . ignore the promos . please . for your own good . and these be the master . these episode and the cream of the crop ( since they be the one abc choose to air and there be two they do not what must they have be like ) . somehow and early part aren not devoid of promise . the first scene with oquinn actually have some dialog and point that be interesting and and the first episode and a clean escape and do at least show some quality to it . the only value this have be to be laugh at . we want our hour back . it should be note that we only get to see these first two episode and a our local abc affiliate choose to air pre season football instead of the two episode follow it . and abc bury it in a spot in the summer and when they would be watch by hardly anyone . i recommend this only to those who agree with the message be shove down the throat of viewer . so the preaching can go no further than the ear of the choir . and those who be fan of science fiction and or or terry oquinn should especially stay away . far and far away . and to the people behind this sorry excuse for entertainment and or or commentary represent guy . get on a soap box and stay away from this fine medium ( or and a my fiancée suggest and stick to message board and so you can be put on ignore ) . we do not need more sci fi this badly . in case you be wonder if my fiancée and i hat this . yes . yes and we do . we wish we could give this a zero and but . negative .
