Mostly a great film. The ending was terrible.

Quite an interesting take on the alien invasion genre. I would have rated it an 8 but for the incredibly bad ending. That will be the biggest point of contention with viewers in this film. How it ends. You may like it. Not me. I thought the characters dissolved quite quickly. Still worth a watch.
