When the movie began and Zarkorr appeared, I already thought the film was off to a great start. The suit is pretty cool, which is easily the best thing about this movie, and there was already some destruction only five minutes in! However then the movie cut to Tommy Ward, the main, "hero," and an okay effect hologram appears in Tommy's apartment. The hologram girl tells Tommy that she is from an advanced civilization of aliens, and that they've sent a giant alien monster, Zarkorr, to....test out the human race's ability? This part didn't really make since, and I find it quite dumb, but it's pretty original. Anyway, Tommy sees Zarkorr decimating stuff on TV, and we finally get some more destruction, after 20 minutes of exposition no one cares about! Then Tommy decides it'd be a good idea to kidnap a cryptozoologist, and try to get info on how to kill Zarkorr. Then some Terminator type stuff happens when Tommy says he's the savior of mankind. Then we get some more destruction action, which goes on for about one whole minute. After that, the cryptozoologist tells Tommy to drive to some weird hacker guy, but that didn't really make sense. Once more exposition is over, we FINALLY get to the climax. Zarkorr goes on a pretty long destruction streak, and the two finally face off. Tommy finds some random shield from space which is his only weapon against a nearly 200 foot tall monster with laser eyes. Tommy uses the shield to deflect Zarkorr's laser eyes, and then the most anticlimactic fight is over. Zarkorr atomizes, and the film kinda just, ends. Zarkorr didn't even attempt to throw something at Tommy or even stomp him. What even was that?!
To be honest, this movie had great potential, I just wish there was more than five minutes of destruction in a movie that's 75 minutes long. And if you guessed the other 70 minutes is just useless moments of the characters talking, then you'd be correct. Listen, the destruction scenes we DO get a pretty awesome, and Zarkorr's design is super cool, but there needs to be MORE of it. And one more thing, when Tommy uses the shield to deflect Zarkorr's eye lasers, I'm pretty sure anyone could do that. Anyone could have been the savior of humanity, but why just some random postal worker? So many questions that won't be answered.
Give this movie a watch, it's got some good destruction scenes, and some okay human scenes. Just don't expect Godzilla tier entertainment or anything.
