At First Light

I liked the movie overall, the acting was believable, the primary male actor was a 10+ in acting ability, I just really hope he is not an actual smoker for real, he runs well, so I doubt it The 'set' was very believable, I got a real impression of two teen age males living in low class (and white, yea there are plenty of poor whites in this country, despite not being represented much in the sympathy media strands), the places the filming was done were the kind of places poor kids would be found I can see a script argument occurred here, 'Lets make them poor kids in gangs and involved in drug trafficking'!!! Countered with, "How about we just make them typical poor kids". I liked that the viewer had to figure out stuff, like-- how are people being selected and why would it occur in this manner?-- The one thing that really brought the movie down was saying that the visitors pre- dated the big bang, there is NO way the scientists would know something like that, especially since no communication ever occurred, AND the visitors are clearly trying to increase their numbers, which implies a finite life span

Big Sci-Fi fan and absolutely loved this movie. Visuals effects, audio soundtrack, story line, and acting from the main characters was top notch. Will definitely be on the lookout for more films from Jason Stone. Really don't know what the bad reviewers are going on about? Great movie with a cool ending

This is a teenage movie, a rather good one so to speak, with a science fiction bias attached to it. the pace are too slow at times,but thats elevated by the use of spectacular special effects.the acting are fine,also the filming , locations and use of sound effects.but i feel the story could have been better told.there are too much E.T stuff that are not presented well enough,especially the super secret special agency surveillance team that are pursuing the youngsters. anyway, a good film,nice surprise actually,a 7 from me.

I thought this was a well made film with good characters. Definitely not your usual teeny bopper garbage (that always seem to do really well). Whilst this may have been aimed at a teenage audience based on it's main characters, to me it had a more grown up feel. The reviews suggest this film is a bit Marmite, you either love it or hate it. I loved it and would recommend.

Apart from one or two glaring continuity errors this is a well produced, directed and acted movie. There are a few obvious holes in the plot but all in all an enjoyable movie. A solid 7/10.

Watched this after knowing nothing about it, wow, a nice little gem of a film, just goes to show that with a good story you dont need to throw millions at it, give this a watch and you wont be disappointed, a nice film indeed.

This is my first review. I decided to try this movie in spite of some hateful reviews I had read. I'm glad I did. The movie was engaging and interesting, well produced and with appropriately worthy special effects. I felt it was slightly reminiscent of 'Close Encounters of the Third Kind' at certain points. I give it 8 out of 10 to help offset some of the ugly negative reviews.

This movie was way better than I expected...it has that coming of age feel with a mix of Sci-Fi in it. The special effects are done pretty well, the story and young fresh faced actors. It's good to watch a movie now and then where no one is too familiar except for the younger brother, who's the kid from the show The Gifted. And this pick up truck driver, guy who uncannily looks like Sammy Davis Jr..
