AE: Apocalypse Earth (2013 Video)
7/10
Aliens everywhere
12 January 2015
Warning: Spoilers
Aliens are invading the earth, and winning the war. Several 'arks' are leaving earth to ensure the survival of human beings elsewhere. Two of them, the 'Isaac Newton' and the 'Albert Einstein', crash on a jungle planet. It looks like paradise only at the first glance, but actually it's full of hostile aliens. The survivors have to fight together against invisible enemies, the so-called Chameleons, supported only reluctantly by a local humanoid race.

Adrian Paul as Frank Baum plays the military leader of the team, who was on the 'Albert Einstein' only by accident. Richard Grieco as Captain Crowe doesn't have a good role: he is carried around injured half of the time. Bali Rodriguez as green skinned alien woman Lea is a winner. Gray Hawks as TIM, an android in the tradition of Star Trek's Data, handles the difficult part very well, not too robotic.

This is actually a nice B movie, a survival challenge against various aliens, and although most of them are humans painted in funny colors, they also added a few CGI creatures from giant spiders to giant lizards, creative for the low budget.
