@jimdarko it was so bad. I’m embarrassed for him. You nailed it. Screenwriting was unforgivable.
@jimdarko Watch it again, an alien doesn’t actually drive a boat lol. It was just short scene where he moved it when he was on the front of it.
It was really no big deal.
@jim222001 why I said essentially. Also pretty great that a boat can just float out to this community with an alien "essentially" driving it, meanwhile a group of rapist, underground water people surrounded by boats did not find that community.
@jimdarko I couldn't have said it better myself, I'm glad I had a free pass to see the movie because I thought it was a waste of one hour and 30 minutes. But then again I wasn't a real big fan of the first one.
@jimdarko I mean there is def worse movies out there. “Cough”tomorrow war”cough”. This first film didn’t need a sequel.
The one that bugged me the most was how did they know to stay quiet during the bar scene? The aliens just attacked. And the total obvious phone ringing was so obvious.
@jimdarko "essentially an alien pilots a boat in this film. Overall it just bugged me."
Hey Google, what's "Ocean Current"
LMFAO dude, you just seem to want to hate this movie if you're using that obvious strawman to bash it. hahaha
@abstractlegend I guess the same scenario when someone commits a B&E at your home, and you're caught sleeping upstairs with your pants down. Let's assume you don't own a firearm.... You wake up to the noise, find somewhere safe to hide, remain quiet, pull out your phone, and dial 911. Make sure to put the phone on silent after you hang up though, and again, remain silent!!
@jimdarko okay you're entitled to your opinion but you don't explain anything about the negatives of this film, only some adjectives ("dumb"). That's really a terrible way to argue.

John Krasinski has proven to have a decent level of craftsmanship behind the camera but this movie proves that he should be kept away from screenwriting.
I’m really surprised at a lot of the positive reviews because the plotting and beats in this movie are super dumb. There is a small hint at the level we are working at when we are with Krasinski on “Day 1” where we get a small peek at life before the aliens came and they make a choice to drop in an Easter egg reference to the toy spaceship that gets his child killed from the first one. It’s a seemingly innocuous little call back, foreshadow, wink, knudge, whatever, but it is a perfect example of the types of choices made in this movie. I mean not to ruin anything but essentially an alien pilots a boat in this film. Overall it just bugged me.
