    Storyline

    Edit
    A family man is plagued by dreams of loss, but his dreams turn out to be more prophetic than paranoid when the planet is attacked by an offworld invasion. As he fights to protect the people he loves, he discovers a hidden strength that can keep them safe from harm.

    Did you know

    Edit
    • Trivia
      The train scene was filmed in Belgrade, Serbia. The train did not need any "make up" as the train operates in this condition regularly. The underground station was made for a metro line that never has been finished.
    • Goofs
      Despite being repeatedly blown up and shot at by the aliens, at the 45 minute mark, Alice's make-up is still utterly flawless.
    • Quotes

      [first lines]

      Peter: [narrating] Our world never stops moving. Changing. Evolving. Every day we go about our routines - work, home, family - but who are we? Who am I? You think you know your beautiful wife, your adorable kids, and who you work for. But what if you don't? And the truth, once you knew it, would change everything.

      [the attack begins, then he awakes]

      Alice: You have a nightmare?

    Good but
    Good film really enjoyed most of it but the kids in it with their incessant whining, screaming and crying at inoportune moments giving away the families position drove me mental. Probabaly the most annoying children I have ever seen in a film
