The story line was missing large bits and pieces to make a really good film.

Movie was slow with little action. Acting was OK but the plot was very poor. Spent too much time developing the characters and left the storyline without any surprises. It leaves you waiting for the alien showdown with the kid and when it happens, it was very disappointing. Special effects were weak. More like a 'B' movie for kids. Overall, I would not recommend wasting your tme.
