Alien invasion in the form of bright, yellow floating sparks of energy that decimates its victims to dust? Wow! But the same ball of light -- almost invisible -- but capturing three-quarters of screen time? Not that happening. Specially when the movie tries to send out a strong message to Earthians -- mess not with the energies of the Earth.
Sean ( Emile Hirsch), Ben ( Max Minghella), Natalie ( Olivia Thirlby) and Anne ( Rachael Taylor) are among the few lucky survivors who hide out in a discotheque's cellar for a few days when Moscow is attacked by alien energy. It's right there that they decide to find their way to the submarine that's taking all the left over survivors to destination unharmed. But what does one do when all is destroyed by the enemy from outer space -- London, New York, Paris, Asia.... What follows next is planning and the innumerable hide and seek moments between the terrified five and the aliens. Sometimes they manage to escape, sometimes it just turns a few into dust.
But even before you wonder if they will ever make it to the submarine that promises to take them to safer land, there is one bigger question: Why do the electromagnetic enemies never stop messing with all things electric here on Earth? They are there to rob Moscow (read Earth) of its rich minerals we are told....
As for the 3D, there's ample scope -- the Moscow setup, deserted roads, abandoned cars, man turning to ash, fire everywhere, collapsing buildings and the very aliens as pieces of fireballs -- wasted... in some parts.
