a5c7b9f00b Strange lights descend on the city of Los Angeles, drawing people outside like moths to a flame where an extraterrestrial force threatens to swallow the entire human population off the face of the Earth.
Jarrod and his pregnant girlfriend Elaine travel to Los Angeles to meet his old friend and successful entrepreneur Terry, and his wife Candice. Terry gives a party in his apartment for Jarrod and offers a job position to him in LA. Terry's assistant and lover Denise (Crystal Reed) and his friend Ray (Neil Hopkins) sleep on the couch in the living room, but in the dawn of the next morning, the group is awakened by mysterious beams of blue light. Ray stares at the light and is taken by the mysterious force. The group of friends try to escape from the alien invaders.
If all you're looking for is good old-fashioned disaster and people prone to put themselves at risk, then this movie is for you. It's not great storytelling, but it's pleasant-enough. It would have been nice to have a little story, especially about the history, of these creatures/ships (or whatever they really are). But I didn't really care, because they still engage the eyes. Now had these aliens gobbled up (or destroyed in some way) the apartment building, that would have been something! As for the final scene of the movie, It didn't make much sense.<br/><br/>*** out of ****
Recipe for Skyline…..<br/><br/>Take one Cloverfield plot skeleton.<br/><br/>Remove Giant Rampaging Monster and rampaging little monsters.<br/><br/>Insert Giant Rampaging Aliens and rampaging little aliens.<br/><br/>Simmer gently until shaky camera "realism" is fully evaporated.<br/><br/>Add in liberal sprinklings of "not actual science" and "incomprehensible nonsense." Bring to a boil and serve in a dead pan.<br/><br/>Voila! Skyline is ready to consume! Of course,ever, my biggest problem with this movie are the scenes where the addition of (or paying attention to) a science adviser was not considered important. By far the most heinous of these is the "watch the nuke through a telescope" scene and not be instantly blinded. And when I say telescope, I don't mean the Hubble Space Telescope via a monitor. I mean a shitty little scope with the naked eye at an explosion happening just across the city. Not only this, but the effects of the blast wave seem abouteffectual. Which is to say, nothing more than a hot wind.<br/><br/>There is additional nonsense involving the aliens seemingly using human brainsduracells or some kind of expendable resource. It's not explained and,ever in such films, the reasoning behind the invasion is not clear at all. About the best I could come up with is "They want our brains!" like the tag-line of some cheesy 50's scifi B-movie.<br/><br/>It does pass the time, though, and is mercifully short for such an epic concept. But it does suffer from a "look at me!" smugness that it doesn't actually manage to deliver on completely.<br/><br/>Its not awful but neither is it that great.
Beyond the dazzling "first contact" sequences seen in the trailers, Skyline is a spasmodic and incoherent shambles hampered by an astoundingly stupid screenplay.
While partying with his best friend Terry (<a href="/name/nm0265668/">Donald Faison</a>) in Terry's penthouse apartment in Los Angeles, Jarrod (<a href="/name/nm0050156/">Eric Balfour</a>), his pregnant girlfriend Elaine "Lainey" (<a href="/name/nm2174090/">Scottie Thompson</a>), Terry's wife Candice (<a href="/name/nm0199590/">Brittany Daniel</a>), Terry's assistant Denise (<a href="/name/nm3706952/">Crystal Reed</a>), and Terry's friend Ray (<a href="/name/nm0394248/">Neil Hopkins</a>) witness an attack on the city by alien spaceships emitting mysterious beams of blue light. Ray stares at the light and is drawn into it like a moth to a flame. It starts to draw Jarrod into it, but Terry pulls him away. As the aliens canvas the city looking for more humans, Jarrod and his friends try to find a way to escape from the building they are in. Skyline is based on a screenplay by Joshua Cordes and Liam O'Donnell. It's accompanied by a sequel, <a href="/title/tt1724970/">Beyond Skyline (2017)</a> (2017). The blue light transmits a powerful alien technology that acts like an airborne virus, similar to the way a "moth zapper" attracts moths and other insects. Once the light has come into contact with a human's eyesight, it overrides the brain and controls it, beckoning for the human to approach the light and be eventually taken to the ship. It obviously also has some major physiological effects on those that engage it with their eyes for any significant amount of time, evidenced by the crawling and growing dark-vein like effects it has on its victims. Humans are being abducted by the aliens so their brains can be removed. Some insight into how the aliens use human brains might be seen in the parking garage scene: the alien that swallows Colin (he's released moments later) has his brain and part of his spinal column removed. The alien ejects a brain-like object and replaces it with Colin's. It might be the way they survive on Earth, replenish their energy, or gain knowledge about humans to make their defeat easier. Everyone dies by various means. The two survivors, Jarrod and Elaine, are sucked into the blue light and into the alien mothership. Elaine ends up in a pile of human bodies slowly having their brains ripped out. She is apparently spared because she is pregnant. She calls to Jarrod, but he is killed by the aliens and his brain removed then sent up a tube. It's apparent afterwards that the brains are being used to create more aliens. The alien that is given Jarrod's brain appears and is seen to protect Elaine who realises who it is. It is seen in a short montage that cities all over the world, including New York, London, Hong Kong, have all been attacked by various alien ships bombarding blue rays and abducting people. The military fights back, but they are defeated. The aliens (who include various assortments such20-foot-tall hulking tankers,wellhydra-like squid creatures, and flying drones) appear to be un-killable, inescapable and unstoppable. Even after one large alien ship is blown apart by a nuclear warhead fired by a stealth drone aircraft, it slowly repairs itself. (All of the aliens, including the spaceships, appear to be a type of bio-mechanical machines capable of self-regeneration). Humanity is completely wiped out and the aliens win in the end, completely taking over the Earth. Jarrod has been subject to the alien technology and virus more than once. It is possible that it has begun to mutate into his DNA, effectively giving his brain an immunity to being reprogrammed. Unlike the rest of the humans taken aboard, Jarrod distinctly remembers who he is and what is going on.
