![]() This is a pity because I was expecting a bit more mystery and suspense allowing the story to breath before the aliens were revealed. In other words an advanced civilization should in theory be a non aggressive race not bent on conquest This is speculation of course because there's no evidence that there's life on any other planet and the novels of John Wyndham are quickly forgotten as the laser bolts fly and the aliens emerge from the sea. In simplistic terms a civilization alien or otherwise would have to evolve beyond petty tribalsitic squabbles and pool their resources in to conquering physics and mastering interstellar travel. One criticism of Wyndham's criminally underrated novel is that if an alien race was this advanced then there's no reason for them to be hostile down to evolutionary psychology. Meteors land in the ocean and very quickly alien incursions attack the coastline. ![]() One thing I didn't notice in the reviews was similarity to the John Wyndham novel The Kraken Wakes. Everyone described this film as BLACK HAWK DOWN meets ALIENS and who am I to contradict public opinion.
