    chilling

    by jbustillo

    literally, you will continuously get goosebumps and chills all throughout this movie!!! excellent story, excellent connect the dots, awesome twists. all in all 9/10. why not a 10/10? bc tho i get that it wasnt going to be a happy ending, i don't get how they could just stand by and let it happen. watch and you will see. i also appreciate that there were no fake thrill build-ups that have become so common now-days in scary movies.

    Nothing extraordinary

    by Frontman

    While this is definitely not a stupid movie, there's nothing special in it. And definitely not for a movie theatre as the movie will lose it's atmosphere - imagine hearing your neighbour-watchers munching popcorn and talking while "oh, darling! there's someone in the house!" suspense? That's my experience... You'd better watch it from home, if there's nothing more interesting out there.

    P.S.
    I have a very weird feeling about other comments: are these people have so low artistic levels? Or they are being paid for excellent reviews??? There's really nothing special about this movie to give it "Go" or higher mark...

    Wait for dvd

    by joeroxxx

    This is a nice movie to see on a Saturday night at home, it's got decent chills but if I remember the twist at the end reminded me of an Are you Afraid of the Dark episode called The 13th Floor. Overall just wait for dvd

    Dark Skies- Tolerable

    by alexcrouch18

    The movie overall was only okay. I thought it was slightly far-fetched, but had a few good jumps. It is not something I would see again, but did not think my money was totally wasted.

    Definitely Underrated Movie

    by barrettborednvegas

    You must see this movie! when I wasn't covering my eyes I was holding on to my husband for dear life. Many chills came my way. See it during the day because it's too scary at night!

    Dark Skies

    by sloren1

    I give this film a 6.5 out of 10. It had some slow moments & some jumpy frightening moments, not too terrifying but good, curious.

    Dark Skies: A great movie meant for people who like a good scare.

    by David The Cat

    This movie was pretty creepy,scary, but pretty awesome. Since I am 12, I'm going to say that this was one of the best movies I have ever seen over my 12 years on Earth. By looking at the TV trailer, it looks like ghosts are doing all the weird things that go on in the Barret's house. But no! It is ALIENS! Based on the storyline, kids that are under the age of around 8 years old should not see this movie. If I were 7 or 8, I would scream my head off in the theater and wet the bed in my sleep. So you get it now. DO NOT TAKE LITTLE JOHNNY TO SEE THIS ALIEN HORROR MOVIE! When I saw this movie, you don't know how many teenage girls screamed their heads off in their boyfriends face. The end. But really. SEE THIS MOVIE!!! IT IS SOOO SCARY!!!!!!!!

    Dark Skies Dark Profit

    by f-27-sanchez

    I can't possibly imagine seeing this movie again. I'll give the movie some credit in that it gave me a few good scares and unless they are planning on making a sequel, the ending really disappointed me. If you are into aliens and the great beyond kind of stuff, then I suggest going to see this flick but if not, don't waste your time.

    Dark Skies

    by stevendbeard

    This movie is about alien abductions [I'm not giving away anything here , it's in the trailer] . Keri and Josh are a married couple with two kids . When strange , disturbing events start happening [on one occasion , a flock of birds just dive bomb into their house , killing themselves , of course] they are at a loss as to what is the cause . The kids even start acting strange and it's not too much later when the parents join in on the looney tunes . Dakota plays their oldest son . J.K. plays an expert on alien abductions and shares his knowledge , when all the other explanations give out . The story is interesting [if you like the subject matter] but I did not care for the ending .
    I would not buy this one on DVD but it would be a good rental .

    To Good to miss!!!!

    by sfsmith1

    I went to this showing expecting very little. Let's face it, most horror movies are the same and you can figure out what to expect before it happens. This movie really put me in my place! Surprise after surprise and quite a few scares! I am so glad I didn't let this one get away! I could easily watch it over and over. The special effects were awesome! The acting was super! And the story was very believable (if anyone has done any research concerning grays you know what I mean) It is only showing once late night but I urge you to go watch it before it is gone!!!

    A New Take

    by drmarcid

    A refreshing plot twist on alien abduction theme. Very good character development, especially
    well portrayed by the principal actors. Kerri Russell, the mother, did a fantastic job! Please note that this is not an "action" movie, it has a slower pace than a typical alien movie; more story development, not as much gore--but still "horrific".

    A good suspense movie

    by rbostwick

    This is a pretty good movie. Nice twist on some out of this world alien movie. My only two thoughts is 1) for a PG-13 movie a little too much teenage sex scene and language. 2) Don't leave your kids alone at night, EVER..... enough said.

    Good movie, not too gory - I enjoyed it.

    by pugmom44

    I enjoyed the movie, excellent effects - definately spooky. The ending confused me though - the ending was too abrupt and I heard other people in the audience go, huh?

    Other than that - good movie.

    Dark Skies

    by cxsolis

    I found the movie's story line to be confusing and overall kinda dull. I was entertained in parts and i didnt fall asleep. but it's definitely not a movie i would recommend someone go and see.

    Dark skies

    by dkr772003

    Decent film. The acting was so-so but the storyline kept my attention even though you could figure out the ending halfway through the movie. I give it a 6 out of 10.
