Matrixston Wow! Such a good movie.

Exoticalot People are voting emotionally.

WillSushyMedia This movie was so-so. It had it's moments, but wasn't the greatest.

Robert Joyner The plot isn't so bad, but the pace of storytelling is too slow which makes people bored. Certain moments are so obvious and unnecessary for the main plot. I would've fast-forwarded those moments if it was an online streaming. The ending looks like implying a sequel, not sure if this movie will get one

stoobie-92483 Falling skies was a great show! I was so upset when I found out it was getting canceled and I had high hopes that another network would pick it up (syfy?) But it's been years now and nothing.

audioprof It was fun, entertaining, educational "history", has controversial topics, like Genetic Modification & Ethics... "Aliens do not care, the only ethic they have is winning." LOL Human Collaborators, Traitors, Bio Weapons, Prepers, Survival tactics, Kamikaze instincts, PTSD, Up&Downs, Nazca Lines, Helium-3, Military Tactics, Alien Tech, Alien Rebels, Spikes, Brainwashing, LOL. Jajajajaja i wish some parts were different / lasted longer, but that´s life...

Fredrik Carlsson The amount of flag waving and overt patriotism in Falling Skies is by no means lacking. The film clearly take cues from the spirit of films such as Independence Day where it pitches remnants of humanity striking back against a superior enemy.In the midst of the action is history teacher Tom Mason, played by Noah Wyle, and his three sons: Matt, Hal and Ben. Tom, throughout the series, delivers a ton of references to the American Revolutionary War which. Sometimes in the most contrived and forced way imaginable.Tom himself, despite being a mere teacher, turns out to be an excellent military strategist and combatant. Aside from, in the midst of all that, being a great dad, moping over his dead wife and finding a new love. I got to hand it to Falling Skies, on one hand it manages to squeeze in almost every trope possible while still taking you by surprise. More along the line of you thinking: "They really went with that?" than a positive surprise, though.Still Falling Skies actually kept me entertained though, as guilty as I am to admit it because there's a lot that should have driven me away from this show. But eventually it found it's footing, Noah Wyle really seemed to grow into the role and watching his sons grow up on camera made you care all the more for them all the more. Also, it's fascinating to see how Tom and his three sons pretty much excel at everything they do. If ever a script writer was playing favorites the Mason family is a great example.Aside from Noah Wyle there's a few actors worth mentioning. Moon Bloodgood as doctor Anne Glass, for instance, doing what she can with a somewhat underdeveloped role. Sarah Carter as bad boy (or girl) Maggie, with a rough exterior, harsh attitude but a heart of gold. Will Patton as Daniel Weaver, a drunkard but stern military captain who grieves his family. But the performance of Colin Cunningham is probably the one I really want to highlight. He had a small but recurring role as a clean cut Major on Stargate SG-1. Here he turns from disciplined military man into a rough outlaw stereotype named John Pope. Leather jacket, long hair and scruffy beard Pope always looks a little bit like a rebel without a cause and pretty much behaves the same. Ever the outsider Pope consistently works against the establishment often coming to disagreement with Tom Mason, despite that the two men's goals align. It's fascinating to see an actor turn in a role that's so different from what you're used to seeing, so cliché as well and yet he owns it completely and without shame. Ultimately John Pope turns into a really, in lack of better words, cool character that you really find yourself rooting for.In many ways John Pope also defines the show: Rough on the outside, cliché-riddled but still perfectly lovable. Falling Skies gets two thumbs up from me, but I'm hiding them behind my back so you can't see.
