    No tengo problema alguno en ver una película entretenida. Una película sincera a si misma que busque el entretener al espectador me parece estupendo y es necesario en el mundo del cine películas así...pero Skyline no es de ellas.

    De los directores de Alien vs Predator 2, solo hay que decir eso, el problema es que los directores han ganado la experiencia en el mundo del cine trabajando en los efectos especiales de películas. Por lo tanto nos encontramos con unos pequeños hijos bastardos de Michael Bay.
    El problema principal de la producción es lo ABURRIDA que es.

    Vayamos por partes, nos encontramos con una película de una invasión alienígena a gran escala, y los protagonistas se pasan TODA la…

    Es un poco una patata de pelicula. Una de aliens. Original en ciertas cosas, como el rollo luces y el punto de vista de los protagonistas. Aquí no defienden la Tierra y tienen discursos americanos de los clásicos

    The ending is so hilariously over the top, it retroactively makes the rest of the film hilarious

    Review by Rob Simpson ★★

    A film written around an effects package, but what stonking great effects package it is. Even if you can bandy around titles like the Matrix and Independence Day, the final 10 or so minutes have the most impressive visual stuff with Greg and Colin Strause experimenting and having fun with their work. The use of blue throughout is wholly effective too, it's not like Skyline is a total bust like some suggest. Even with the ever likeable Donald Faison in the cast, the narrative seems far more interested in watching an array of hateful stereotypes hide behind the sofa.

    A film so bad, it's obviously made by committee ... a committee of idiots.

    Given that The Brothers Strause were the men responsible for inflicting the Hollyoaks Vs. Aliens Vs. Predator unpleasantness that was AVP: Requiem upon the world, you'd be forgive for approaching Skyline with the usual amount of carefulness you'd reserve for using the words "please castrate me."
    Thankfully Skyline is better than their previous effort. Not much mind, but at least it has a couple of redeeming features. In a bizarre mix of Cloverfield and Independence Day, the film follows a bunch of well to do 20-something's as aliens arrive over Los Angeles and start sucking everyone up into their big spaceships. Your skin sort of burns first for reasons that we're never really told.......the Strause siblings must have just thought…

    Skyline gets a bad rap, but it's really a pretty impressive movie. I can forgive it's shortcomings when I marvel at the ambitious and effective special effects. I can't decide if it's more like a Hollywood blockbuster that got squashed down to its bare essentials or like a Syfy mockbuster that's too big for its britches. Either way, I dug it and would actually be down for the sequel that the lunatic ending calls for.
