filmlover83 – ★★★★☆
“A thrilling sequel that ditches the clean sci‑fi polish for gritty, visceral chaos. Frank Grillo shines as the relentless dad on a mission.” -
cinemaniac89 – ★★★☆☆
“Fun action set‑pieces and creative alien design. Story and character development are light, but adrenaline‑packed madness keeps it engaging.” -
alienhorrorjunkie – ★★★½☆
“An upgrade from Skyline, with more practical creature effects and intense body‑horror moments. Not high art, but it delivers the scares.” -
thrillseeker – ★★★☆☆
“Lots of wall‑to‑wall action. The pacing is relentless, but characters sometimes get lost in the chaos.” -
scifigeek76 – ★★★☆☆
“A lean sci‑fi thriller with brutal flair. The father‑son angle adds emotional stakes, even if the plot treads familiar ground.”
