  Saw this on Pop up on Netflix and after seeing some of the reviews I watxhed it, expecting nothing. I was still disappointed.

  Must be the worst movie ever in a long time. Even some of the worst Steven Seagal movies shine compared to this. Bad story, Bad acting, basically Bad everything

• A genuine regret watching this movie;

  So I love all kinds of movies regardless of cast, budget, genre etc. It's not often I actually regret watching a movie but sadly I do regret watching Alien Warfare (2019). I understand that not every movie needs to be/can be high budget. In fact some of my favourite movies (Evidence, The Battery, State Of Emergency etc) are on the low-end when it comes to budget so I go into movies with my eyes wide open but dear lord. Alien Warfare is just flat-out bad. The effects were bad to the point that they almost seemed like they were supposed to be supporting some kind of parody. The story itself was okay-ish but it's the same thing that's been done time and time again. The cinematography was just cheap and some of the dialogue itself just seemed awkward. So having said that; I have watched movies like this before with the same negatives that've had the saving grace of good/passionate actors but dear lord, that's not the case here. I got the legitimate feeling that the actors either weren't getting paid, weren't getting paid enough or weren't actual actors and instead were people either picked up off the street or kidnap victims. None of the actors performed well or even mildly decent, none of them seemed to have any semblance of passion and none of them felt believable in their respective roles. I'm all for indie-movies and micro-budget movies and I usually tell people to watch something just for the experience but I can wholeheartedly say that this one is an easy hard-pass for most people. It just isn't worth the time invested.

• An extra star for Jones yelling, "Aw, he'll no!"

  Any hope of being a respectable sci-fi flick is teleported away when you see the aliens - they look like villains from a Mighty Morphin Power Rangers episode. I did get into a little, yelling "Awwww-Nooo, they got Jonesy, they got Jonesy!!!" and couldn't seem to just stop watching.

  Hard to believe they still make films this bad. Elements of Arrival, sounds from Alien, costumes from Doctor Who in the sixties. Gave up before the end as I lost the will to live.
