A film from the psychedelic Sixties. Tune in, turn on, drop out. Make love, not war. Sock it to me, baby. If you just want to... sort of... look at stuff, here's a movie to watch. So, aliens invade. But we don't see them... or much of anything; except the schizophrenic hallucinations and delusions of some dude. Seen on Tubi, the free streaming site, which has better movies than this; and now, live TV.

A scifi for the Oprah network? Has anyone managed to watch the whole thing? Maybe it has a marvelous ending. I will never know....not even sure I can come up with 150 characters to qualify as a acceptable review. Kinda like doing that 500 word story for freshman English where you just stretch it out with mindless verbiage. Hay! That explains the screen play at least.
I got to find Nina.

Warning: Spoilers
Tom (Maximilian Anthony) gets a promotion and raise at work. He celebrates with his live-in girlfriend Nina (Mar Alsius) who works with mental patients. Tom gives Nina a lovely ring. Nina mentions marriage and a baby which puts Tom off the deep end and leads to a rift and a swift break-up. The morning after the break-up his neighbor Karl (Ben Vinnicombe) comes over to save his life on the onset of an alien invasion. Tom does not want to go to Karl's prepper shelter but wants to go outside and find Nina whose phone goes to voice mail. Karl is a conspiracy-type person. He believes the government is creating the illusion of an alien invasion so we will all take a pill that will save us, but will give over our control to "them." Tom hears the alien voice in his head talk to him and says he can't tell anyone or else he won't find Nina.
I noticed the pitiful soundtrack before I was cued into the bad acting. As science fiction, the film is boring and a bust. This is an avoid-at-all-cost production.
Guide: F-word. No sex or nudity.

After you've realized that the poster is a little misleading, this movie is actually pretty decent

Are we really under alien siege? Or is it all just a mind trip by a lunatic?
Once you've come into that path, Exopolitics is quite fun. I particularly enjoyed the way it is "stitched" together, appearing linear but actually being asymmetrical on a meta level.
Tom lives a seemingly great life, about to step up to the next level and wanting to celebrate with his love. But his girlfriend wants to take the relationship to the next level too - much to the displeasure of Tom, who takes off after a decisive conversation, only to wake up the next day in a hilarious scenario: the world is being invaded and undermined by aliens. On top, he can't get in touch with his girl anymore. That's where the psycho trip begins.
I enjoyed it. Good pacing, great atmosphere - the only weird thing is that most side characters play better than the main actor. Apart from that, I had a really good time.
