Invasion Roswell

Not completely terrible. The best aspect is the acting which is reasonably good, especially from Greg Evigan and Denise Crosby. Their general professionalism however deserved a much better movie. The photography, editing and the way it's shot is hardly incompetent though their quality's not particularly note-worthy. The special effects is a good starting point to why Invasion Roswell is not a good movie, at best they're laughable and unfinished-looking. And let's not get started on the alien weapons, I do agree that they look like children's toys. The story is not involving at all, that it's so predictable that you can smell the ending a mile away is one thing but there's also very little fun, suspenseful or thrilling on display, there are moments but they are too far and between. The dialogue is painfully under-written and trite, the direction is completely flat and the characters are little more than ciphers that don't do much of a good job moving the story forward. The aliens are not much of a threat, very lacking in personality and presence. Overall, not terrible or a disaster but dull and pretty poor, the acting is pretty much the only good thing about it. 3/10 Bethany Cox
