There are a couple of things that come to mind when I read the reviews here. Most people that were disappointed expected either a good Sci-fi or a good laugh but couldn't appreciate the fact that it was a 50/50 mix of both. It's neither one or the other so it can't excel at both. It seems that many people's expectations were high probably because of Ford, Craig and Spielberg's association with the movie. There's a lot of tongue in cheek humor in this flick and it went completely unnoticed by many unfortunately. To me it was just really good entertainment, no more and no less. Craig is convincing in his role, Ford less so and Olivia Wilde's eyes are absolutely haunting. The aliens were well done and so were most of the action scenes. There are many little nagging things about the movie, questions left unanswered and a few things that just don't make sense but hey, it's a sci-fi people! I've seen many great comedies and great science fiction movies in the past and this doesn't come close to any of them but as a mixture of both, it's decent. Also, there's nothing gruesome or horrific in this movie despite some reviewer's using said adjectives to describe it. [...] It might be slightly disturbing for someone who hasn't seen a movie in the last 25 years but for the rest of us, where's the horror?
