- Jarrod and his pregnant girlfriend Elaine travel to Los Angeles to meet his old friend and successful entrepreneur Terry, and his wife Candice. Terry gives a party in his apartment for Jarrod and offers a job position to him in LA. Terry's assistant and lover Denise (Crystal Reed) and his friend Ray (Neil Hopkins) sleep on the couch in the living room, but in the dawn of the next morning, the group is awakened by mysterious beams of blue light. Ray stares at the light and is taken by the mysterious force. The group of friends try to escape from the alien invaders.
- Strange lights descend on the city of Los Angeles, drawing people outside like moths to a flame where an extraterrestrial force threatens to swallow the entire human population off the face of the Earth.
- The one good thing I can say about this film is that is wasn't over- hyped. The only thing worse than a movie falling short of expectations is when it falls short after appearing on countless advertising slots and theater previews. <br/><br/>There are warning signs right from the beginning that the film isn't going to make it. When a director opens with a scene and then shoots back in time to show what lead up to the scene, they should probably show something of significance. Otherwise, they've just wasted time and created filler. <br/><br/>The character development (or lack there of) does nothing for the movie. Outside of thinking "hey it's the funny black guy from Scrubs" I don't think viewers felt any sense of connection. <br/><br/>Lastly, I don't understand the modern approach directors take these days of making sure every movie has an opening for a sequel. It's laughable in this case when you consider the fact that this movie was a failure. Do they really think someone is going to pay them to make another one? <br/><br/>Bottom line: take the Sentinels from The Matrix, effects from Independence Day, and some story line from War of the Worlds you get a really bad movie.
- What a waste!!<br/><br/>I can not call Skyline is a "movie". It is a non story visual effect show. totally waste! I just can not believe people made this show and play in the theater. When the show played 20 minus, I knew it will be a bad one. The whole show was filmed in the same building?? <br/><br/>BTW, 0.5 star for the visual effect, poor old man and cute dog.<br/><br/>gee,.... I am so unhappy to watch Skyline. gee,.... I am so unhappy to watch Skyline. gee,.... I am so unhappy to watch Skyline.gee,.... I am so unhappy to watch Skyline. gee,.... I am so unhappy to watch Skyline. gee,.... I am so unhappy to watch Skyline.
- This sci-fi thriller manages to blend genuine suspense with unintentional laughs.
- While partying with his best friend Terry (<a href="/name/nm0265668/">Donald Faison</a>) in Terry's penthouse apartment in Los Angeles, Jarrod (<a href="/name/nm0050156/">Eric Balfour</a>), his pregnant girlfriend Elaine "Lainey" (<a href="/name/nm2174090/">Scottie Thompson</a>), Terry's wife Candice (<a href="/name/nm0199590/">Brittany Daniel</a>), Terry's assistant Denise (<a href="/name/nm3706952/">Crystal Reed</a>), and Terry's friend Ray (<a href="/name/nm0394248/">Neil Hopkins</a>) witness an attack on the city by alien spaceships emitting mysterious beams of blue light. Ray stares at the light and is drawn into it like a moth to a flame. It starts to draw Jarrod into it, but Terry pulls him away. As the aliens canvas the city looking for more humans, Jarrod and his friends try to find a way to escape from the building they are in. Skyline is based on a screenplay by Joshua Cordes and Liam O'Donnell. It's accompanied by a sequel, <a href="/title/tt1724970/">Beyond Skyline (2017)</a> (2017). The blue light transmits a powerful alien technology that acts like an airborne virus, similar to the way a "moth zapper" attracts moths and other insects. Once the light has come into contact with a human's eyesight, it overrides the brain and controls it, beckoning for the human to approach the light and be eventually taken to the ship. It obviously also has some major physiological effects on those that engage it with their eyes for any significant amount of time, evidenced by the crawling and growing dark-vein like effects it has on its victims. Humans are being abducted by the aliens so their brains can be removed. Some insight into how the aliens use human brains might be seen in the parking garage scene: the alien that swallows Colin (he's released moments later) has his brain and part of his spinal column removed. The alien ejects a brain-like object and replaces it with Colin's. It might be the way they survive on Earth, replenish their energy, or gain knowledge about humans to make their defeat easier. Everyone dies by various means. The two survivors, Jarrod and Elaine, are sucked into the blue light and into the alien mothership. Elaine ends up in a pile of human bodies slowly having their brains ripped out. She is apparently spared because she is pregnant. She calls to Jarrod, but he is killed by the aliens and his brain removed then sent up a tube. It's apparent afterwards that the brains are being used to create more aliens. The alien that is given Jarrod's brain appears and is seen to protect Elaine who realises who it is. It is seen in a short montage that cities all over the world, including New York, London, Hong Kong, have all been attacked by various alien ships bombarding blue rays and abducting people. The military fights back, but they are defeated. The aliens (who include various assortments such as 20-foot-tall hulking tankers, as well as hydra-like squid creatures, and flying drones) appear to be un-killable, inescapable and unstoppable. Even after one large alien ship is blown apart by a nuclear warhead fired by a stealth drone aircraft, it slowly repairs itself. (All of the aliens, including the spaceships, appear to be a type of bio-mechanical machines capable of self-regeneration). Humanity is completely wiped out and the aliens win in the end, completely taking over the Earth. Jarrod has been subject to the alien technology and virus more than once. It is possible that it has begun to mutate into his DNA, effectively giving his brain an immunity to being reprogrammed. Unlike the rest of the humans taken aboard, Jarrod distinctly remembers who he is and what is going on. a5c7b9f00b
