PHASEDK As usual I missed the start, UK satellite Horror Channel but I saw most of it and IT kept me interested. Some of these comments have made me realise some people didn't listen or watch properly. There were answers, as some others have now said. Some women may find the, quiet,mystery man different.. that made me laugh. So he has a gismo that can do things. When the woman hes with turns up, aha, good twist.. fact is I recognised many 'facts' mentioned, and it made a change to have an educated, 'seen it all' type base boss. I found none of this impossible. It was a good alternate story of what could have happened at Rosswell and for all we know did. NO one apart from those there at the time know? The end narrative..jump to 'now' when the story was being told from.. again, food for thought for anyone who may still wonder if its possible. Shame more of us haven't the brain to at least wonder.. sci fi often predicts the future, Star Trek manuals.. they make sense, Roddenberry still makes me wonder if he knew more. The people that wrote the manuals.. known physics expanded. Thoroughly well made over all. Sparce special effects, just what was needed. Kids now expect more. We remember cardboard boulders from Trek and the Brit earlier TV sci fi limited budgets.. they had charm. I'd recommend this film to anyone, but the title, the impression of an 'Indepndance Day' attack.. nope.

TheOtherFool Let's say, there is a UFO falling from the sky. There's a man laying on the ground miles from civilization, without transportation. This man claims to be a hot-shot scientist, but acts weird, only knows a couple of words in English and doesn't understand a simple joke or remark. What do you do?The answer is: you fall in love with him! This is what the widowed Katie does anyway, although one wonders why, as alien John's only contribution to their conversations is 'yes' or 'no' (although a cynic would say that's the perfect partner). Good thing though that the aliens apparently speak English to each other, it's the best way to learn the language, folks...Oh I forgot what the aliens (there's 2 of them, John and a female) want. Well, what do all aliens want... they want to destroy the planet. To do so they recharge an atomic bomb (?) so that the whole world will explode (erm... I didn't get that either). This bomb is on a military base in Roswell, New Mexico, home of the UFO.Back to the story then. Conflicts start when alien-guy John likes Katie and her son as well and thinks this whole blowing-up-the-planet thing is immoral. His female buddy from outer space Eve thinks otherwise though... Meanwhile the military guys find out he's an imposter (finally checked his records, guys?), while the bomb keeps ticking...Now John and Katie team up to find Eve and stop her from detonating the bomb. Love it when John tells Katie he's an alien: 'I came here to destroy the planet, but I changed my mind (!)'. From that point the movie which is already ludicrous takes some more stupid turns, which includes a silly fight and a countdown-sequence you only see in old Bond movies, but then worse. Notice this: it takes that stupid bomb about 30 seconds to verify (!) a code...The actors try but this pile of dung can't be saved, no matter what actors you'd use. Kate Greenhouse is a Heather Nova look-a-like (anybody else notice), playing the Katie person and Steven Flynn has no problems using a single facial impression on the John guy. But that's not where the movie goes wrong. We're way past that point...A cheap TV movie, this one: 2/10.

CharltonBoy Roswell:The Aliens attack is one of those films that is so poor is lots of different ways that it has a certain charm and you cant help but like it despite all it's faults. It is the story of aliens that land in Roswell , Where else!,and their mission is to destroy earth by detonating an atom bomb held on the army base big enough to destroy the earth. There are so many holes in the story that it would take ages to go through them but here are a few questions that have to be asked. 1.Why when the aliens had the technology to come to earth did they not have the know how to blow the planet up without using 1940's weaponary? 2.Why was the bomb stored in the middle of what looked like a school gym with the army's youngest member keeping guard? 3.Why did the widow take such a shine to the male alien when he hardly spoke and didnt even smile? Was she that desperate to get laid? 4.Who were the aliens that were found dead? These are just some of the questions that spring to mind and believe me there are many more. The acting is not bad at all ,which is a suprise considering the laughable script. If you can suspend belief in reality and the fact that story is so silly you might actually like this. 6 out of 10.

redfern-2 This was packaged pretty well and promised an interesting spin on an interesting story - the alleged discovery and subsequent cover-up of a crashed alien spacecraft in New Mexico 1947. Anyway what you get is rubbish of the highest order and as soon as the cheap "fluoro green eyes" special effect is used to identify the aliens then you know what you're in for. Two human shaped aliens walk out of the crash - one male the other female. Well the male falls in love with a widowed airforce base worker and the female goes on a sex spree, and there is much disagreement between male and female on whether to blow up the earth. Won't give away the ending but it is so loaded with sweetness you'll want to be sick. There's also a hand-held alien gadget which shoots people, uploads information, downloads information, fries peoples brains, and heals people (most with a voice that sounds like the "good morning" you hear in some elevators). Take my advice - give this one a wide berth ...
