Mouse Rating & Review: D

This movie stunk worse than the Cat's liter box. It seemed like it was not going to be that bad, the Cat always makes me watch these action packed Sci-fi movies. But it stopped being ok/decent about 15-30minutes in. They basically have only one CGI heavy scene they do and then just drag it out for an hour & a half you will never get back. The the ending is the cherry on the top of this poop sundae- it literally looks as though they just ran out of film to use- so they cut an actual real ending and then added some stupid/crazy nonsense scene that doesn't solve any of the problems this weak plot had. And the only 2 real actors in the movie (in my mouse opinion) were the guy from Dexter & the guy from scrubs and they are both killed off and not leads. I wouldn't normally reveal this, however this is a definitely a movie to skip.
Oh & PS im pretty sure the blond "lady"(Faison,from Scurb's wife)  in the movie is really a dude

Cat Rating &Review: D

When my whiskers first caught wind of the preview I was excited to see this movie since I am an advid sci fi adventure cat. The effects looked great and I thought it would be a decent movie. Unfortunately this movie will have cats all over the world disappointed because of its failure to bring home a good movie from a good idea. The idea was great effects were great but the movie fell far short of being on a cats top movie list. They basically rehashed one Independence day action scene and made it an entire movie called Skyline. Good idea but failed execution. The ending left you wondering what happened to all the cat nip !!!
