'Skyline' Movie Delivered Lots Of Intense Action & Thrills

By Ryan Smith


Universal Pictures recently released a new sci-fi/thriller movie "Skyline" into theaters a couple months ago. I just checked it out. While it was exciting to watch,all the action and "edge of your seat scenes" lead up to no payoff in the end. It was very odd. It stars: Eric Balfour, Donald Faison, Scottie Thompson,and Brittany Daniel.

The movie revolved around six partying males and females who have a really great time at a party during the night. However, the next morning, everything changes when weird lights and noises wake everyone up. They end up realizing this new,freakish light isn't a good thing. As a matter of fact, it controls everyone who looks at it,and takes them away to only God knows where.

The group of friends start to immediately panic,and try to carry out a plan that involved getting in the car,and making a run for it. However they quickly find out that isn't a good idea as the giant alien creatures show up everywhere,and they're not friendly. The group of friends start getting killed until they dwindle down to just two people Jarrod and Elaine.

Elaine and Jarrod emerge as the main focus of the movie,but are not victorious. They run around all over the place,trying to fight off the seemingly invulnerable creatures,along with the military forces that have been brought in to help fight as well.

Skyline showed a lot of graphic,"edge of your seat" moments,which included people getting sucked into the creature,people's heads being separated from their bodies,Jarrod fighting his heart out to try and save Elaine,lots of guns being fired,and bombs blowing up.

The film capped off with a very strange ending that revealed what the aliens were actually doing,but with absolutely no victorious payoff at all. It was a very odd way to end a high action, thriller flick like this. When I was leaving the theater, I heard one lady say, "I want my money back." It definitely was not a typical ending for a thriller movie,and was a bit disappointing for me. However, everything before that, was really cool to watch,and kept me on the edge of my seat. I gave this movie a B-.
