Scanialara You won't be disappointed!

Matrixston Wow! Such a good movie.

Raetsonwe Redundant and unnecessary.

Humaira Grant It’s not bad or unwatchable but despite the amplitude of the spectacle, the end result is underwhelming.

Nilsosmar-2 I found the DVD of this one for a dollar at a Pawn Exchange, saw the terrible cover, and thought, this looks like a horrible movie... I wonder why Darryl Hannah is in it? Could it be it was actually good? Could it be satirical? Is Darryl Hannah really in it? And why does she look like a bug monster on the cover of the DVD, if it's supposed to be a surprise? And why was the DVD only a dollar? How long had they been trying to sell it? Why had somebody pawned it for a quarter, and never come back to get it back? How bad could it be? I decided to find out. So I bought it, stuck it on a shelf and forgot about it.So tonight I felt like watching a really bad movie, found it and watched it. It was funny, it was so bad it was fun to watch. Darryl Hannah looked like she was having fun being in a ridiculous movie for the first half or so, then like she just wanted to get it over with as soon as possible. I love the plot holes, the characters who make no sense at all and have no reason to be in the movie, the plot twists (like the shopping trip to buy the knives) that make no sense and have nothing to do with the story, the long meandering scenes about used car salesmen and bird watchers, the aliens who die for no reason when you chop their claws off, the characters who get giant bug larvae stuffed down their throats, the dialogue trying to explain in a bad meandering way what we just saw on the screen, the long scenes in which women sit around talking about scarves, the pointless scenes like the burrowing thing on the moon in the beginning that makes lots of noise in a vacuum, the bad sets and bad CGI. Others have pointed out some of the plot holes.... to me they're the best part. I did like the line about aliens who put on their humans one leg at a time... I have to wonder if the actor ad libbed it, or if it was the one good line that survived when a committee butchered a good script, when it was being made. All of it was fun and ridiculous. I liked the hero tossing aside Darryl Hannah's host body instead of trying to save her after the alien bug thing jumped out of her skin. I loved the alien bus driver who stopped to let on an old lady passenger for no reason, while abducting the heroes. I loved the couple from Eastern Europe who had nothing whatsoever to do with the story and no reason to be in it, and ended up playing no role in the action. I loved the crazy interviews with the actors on the DVD in which they tried to respond seriously about serious questions about where there were really bug-like aliens running around on earth plotting to destroy the human race. I think there are, and I think they made this movie.

manjodude This is a simple, low budget(looks so!) movie of aliens on earth. I wish the pace of the movie could have been more fast and lot more engaging but still, it gives an interesting take on man's predicament as the aliens begin to take over. Quite different from the usual Hollywood stuff.The few actors who made some impact here are Gil Bellows as the lonely archaeologist who tumbles on something very wrong and Suleka Mathew as the pest exterminator. Rest are forgettable, including Daryl Hannah's presence.Sad, this movie had oodles of potential and could have done much better.Verdict: Nice try but still boring anyway. Let the aliens invade :)

wes-connors After what appears to be a minor mishap, digging for samples on the Moon, "Pericles" space mission leader Campbell Scott (as William "Billy" Phillips) arranges to return safely to home planet Earth. While Mr. Scott sleeps, a "security breach" begins dismembering his crew. Only Scott and female passenger Daryl Hannah (as Elizabeth "Liz" Quinlan) escape to Earth. There, Scott mysteriously disappears and Ms. Hannah goes to work at San Francisco's City Hall.Also on the ground, archaeologist Gil Bellows (as Lloyd Walker) explains his work to some grade kids on a field trip, "When you dig a hole, you travel back in time," he states. Shapely exterminator Suleka "Sue" Mathew (as Marianne) is upset with the graphic nature of Mr. Bellows' tour speech, which scares her nephew. That night, one of Bellows' young workers, Ryan McDonell (as Jonathan Gillis), is swallowed into the earth after a prank. And, he's not the only one…Underground city workers are mysteriously vanishing; but, the "accidents" and disappearances are all being swept under the rug. This irks Bellows (he turns out to be the lead actor in this science-fiction drama, which weaves its various characters interestingly into the storyline). He is contacted by stealthy John Cassini (as Jake Roth), and the men begin piecing together a terrifying conspiracy, including a possible alien invasion, which could lead to the "Final Days of Planet Earth"!"There's only one puzzle here, okay Walker?" Mr. Cassini advises Bellows, "Until you put your pieces on the table, it's not gonna get finished." Not sure who to trust, Bellows begins to investigate some slimy, green-bleeding blobs hidden in San Francisco's underground. He enlists the help of former astronaut Hannah (remember her from the opening Moon mission). Hannah, who is working with city commissioner Serge Houde (as Korshaft), warns "Careful where you dig." Meanwhile, used car salesman Patrick Gilmore (as Spence) is having trouble collecting unemployment, after getting laid off; immigrants Tygh Runyan (as Nick) and Tina Milo (as Bella) worry about her husband, who is among the missing; and, homeless shelter worker Beau Starr (as Oliver), still mourning the passing of his wife Amanda, notices something unusual in the woods. They, and most of the other characters in the drama, are directed to "Room 86" for assistance...Enter "Room 86" at your own risk! - but don't avoid "Final Days of Planet Earth" like the plague of long, lackluster TV movie extravaganzas it gets lumped with. It is too long, and unravels much during the first half of the second part; but, this is surprisingly above average "Hallmark" television production. The story, by Christian Ford and Roger Soffer nicely updates paranoid 1950s thrillers, like "Them!" (1954). Director Rob Lieberman and star Bellows keep it moving.But, San Francisco? Have the filmmakers ever been there?****** Final Days of Planet Earth (3/15-16/06) Robert Lieberman ~ Gil Bellows, Daryl Hannah, Suleka Mathew, Campbell Scott

ylekiot9 The plot makes no sense. The characters are random at best. The things people say and do have no grounding in reality. Darryl Hannah and others blink (a lot). No, contrary to some reviewers you will not necessarily like this if you like 50's sci fi movies or whatever. It just is a terrible movie. Here are some things that entertained me about the movie: Walker lighting a match next to the eggs with no explosion and then being able to throw a match down from 20 feet into the same area (match stays lit!) and kaboom a giant flame shoots up. Bystanders are heard screaming because of the explosion and then no-one pays any attention and goes on about their business-ridiculous!Sealing the ground with concrete after a man has sunk down in it and disappeared, sparking a rescue operation-ridiculous!Sitting in a waiting room waiting to see someone and getting suspicious because of all the mysterious things: 1)everyone has a note that says "give first consideration to this candidate" 2)the receptionist doesn't blink-ridiculous!Sticking a stun gun in someones face because they offer you a tip after you inspect their house for pests-ridiculous!Giving someone your phone number and "home address" in case they want to contact you-ridiculous!Walker going to city hall and asking the city engineer why he can't get permission to "continue his dig" after it's been sealed with concrete (and a man is in there dead and lost) and the city engineer says he'll try to get him permission-and to give him a couple of days-ridiculous!Honestly I couldn't continue to watch something that made no sense-especially in the beginning, where the plot was non-existent and it was just a bunch of random scenes thrown together. This is not the worst movie I have ever seen, as it is somewhat elevated by the fact that it is a science fiction movie and I love science fiction, but the fact is that it is just not watchable. Read a book instead.
