Skyline Movie Review Disappoints

The Skyline movie reviews that you read online are so promising. The Rogue Pictures/Universal film is set to release this Friday, November 12. Read some of the reviews below.

Chintzy CGI-laden chaos sandwiched between lengthy stretches of tedious, amateurish dramatic filler…a cheapy, painfully uneventful snoozer. [Skyline Movie Review by Sci-Fi Movie Page]

Taken in the spirit in which it’s hopefully intended — a brainless thrill ride — Skyline is a slick genre piece that entertains for 92 minutes and is forgotten as soon as you walk out of the cinema. [Skyline Movie Review by Liverpool Echo]

We get some watchable flurries of hunt-’em-down suspense between the interminable kvetchings of the human prey, but the only salient reason to see this is the creature design, by those HR Giger-inspired wizards Alec Gillis and Tom Woodruff Jr. [Skyline Movie Review by Daily Telegraph]

Compared with the recent spate of sci-fi films such as District 9, Star Trek and most of Roland Emmerich’s disaster films, Skyline struggles to live up to its own expectations, bereft as it is of any humour or soul. [ Skyline Movie Review by FILMINK (Australia)]
