I just saw the preview screening. This is a totally awesome movie that kept me in the edge of my seat the whole time. Great special effects and great sounds. Definitely the kind of movie to see on the big screen. Well worth the money !!!!

This is the best movie I have seen in awhile. The acting to me was good because you could feel the emotion from the characters. People giving this a negative review need to watch it again. If you know nothing of teamwork or serving or watching your closest friends get hurt or killed then you won't understand the emotion I am talking about. Very good movie.

A little Propogandish with the whole wanting to be a marine, but still....I give this movie an A. Makes me want to do my 3D homework. Go see it!

I had a chance to see an advanced viewing last night and came away fairly happy. There are 3 distinct story lines that get are completed well. In a way, It's a no-nonsense version of Independence Day with plenty of action, human drama, and patriotic flag waving. Think of it more of a movie about what people do in extraordinary circumstances that just happens to be set in the middle of an alien invasion. Acting performances and dialog are solid for the most part. There are certain improbabilities but overall, it's not over the top like having Powerbooks giving aliens a virus. It's shot in that Bourne 2 shaky cam style so you probably don't want to sit too close unless that's your thing. It does lend to the chaos of the movie so it's not bad thing. Retreat, Hell!

Saw the midnight showing and was blown away. This movie is on such a huge scale and I personally was expecting a lot but this went beyond what I was expecting. There are no force fields and when you shoot the aliens they die(even though it is hard to kill them) you see this movie through Marines eyes and you never get a sense they were doing anything that real Marines wouldn't do in that situation.The acting is great other than Michelle Rodriguez but we should all be used to that by now. There is also a good amount of human drama, and you see a lot of what real soldiers have to deal with like leaving their wife and kid or losing a loved one. This movie is stunning and will have you gasping for breath then deliver a great and pulse pounding ending!! People who say this movie is cliche are just looking for a reason to not like it. Go see this movie then go see it again because I promise you will want to!! Retreat hell!!
