Well it's been 15 years since this film came out and I thought I'd get opinions on it for the upcoming anniversary day (3/21). I know the film was panned and flopped when it was first released, but I'm curious if I'm the only one who thinks the movie isn't as bad as people make it out to be. I'm not saying it's a flawless film by any means or some misunderstood film, but I feel like it's not that bad.

It's been forever since I saw it, but I remember really liking the first 30 minutes or so, but unfortunately, I didn't like the 2nd half of the movie very much.

The only part of the movie I don't really care for is the flashbacks to them as kids. Not as good as the main storyline with them as adults or Morgan Freeman and the military trying to stop the aliens.

I liked the kid stuff (very "It"), but once we get into the poop aliens and the military stuff with Morgan Freeman and his Eugene Levy eyebrows the movie goes completely off the rails.

I watched the film years ago and thought it was all right, though I remember thinking it was kinda gross.

That's a pretty good description if I recall.

It's a mostly entertaining movie imo, and the cast is awesome. It has great atmosphere and a I love the stuff with Damien Lewis. I enjoy the stuff with Duddits, but the movie isn't very clear about aspects of his character.
The military stuff is where it runs into problems.
