I am usually not a fan of these kind of fantasy movies. This movie combines all sorts of genres, but it does it in a quite entertaining and creative way.
The story: alien monsters invading the earth must be fought. Lots (LOTS) of fighting follows...
The good: there are some pretty spectacular action scenes in the middle part of this movie, around 1 hour into the movie.
The bad: this movie lasts (WAY) too long. Almost 2 and a half hour and most of it is talking scenes, which isnt terrible, but there is simply too much different characters talking to each other. I lost count.
More bad: the story is all over the place, which isnt terrible, but doesnt help either in understanding who is fighting who and for what reason.
In the end this is quite an entertaining spectacle, with some flaws though...
