    Storyline

    Did you know

    Edit
    • Trivia
      The countdown audio leading up to Commissioner Igoe's descent (1:10 into the movie) and up to Mulligan's descent (near the end of the movie) is the actual audio from the countdown of the launch of Apollo 11, in 1969.
    • Goofs
      Late in the film, Mulligan hands Gabriel a SIM card from an old cell-phone. Whilst Mulligan is preparing to go down the shaft, Gabriel puts the card into an SD card reader slot, and views videos of his mother's baby shower. A SIM card is not an SD card.
    • Quotes

      Kermode: [on the resistance] They don't exist

      William Mulligan: [snorts] That's what they said about aliens

    • Crazy credits
      During the beginning of the end credits, a map of the world is shown with listed locations where human rebellions have achieved victory against the aliens, across America, Europe, the Middle East, and Asia.

    Better than i anticipated
    Better than i expected, though not exceptional. Political/rebellion thriller that isnt overloaded with action. I enjoyed the way the film didnt treat you like a child and spoon feed you everything.
