![]() ![]() Those two characters continue from the end credits of Skyline where the protagonist Jarrod's brain is in an alien body and he is fighting his way out of the ship. For some reason they try to shoehorn in the characters from the first movie, but they use different actors and re-filmed a few scenes from the original movie so that you know who they are supposed to be. The story of this movie and the motivations of the characters are just dumb. So i'll be giving it a 2/3 due to it not having any glaring issues. I really don't have much to say about other than I wasn't offended by it in any way. It's just good enough to get the job done. ![]() It's not poorly done, nor is it overly exciting or engaging. There is nothing special about the audio in this movie. It just takes you out of the experience, especially when at the very end you see the sets and alien suits in the bloopers and they look better than in the damn movie. This movie has awful cg mixed with practical effects that are for some reason made to look worse with cg on top. WHY NOT JUST USE THAT ALIEN INSTEAD OF THE CG ONE?! But then immediately after that they show that exact same alien being played by a man in a suit. There is a particularly bad scene right at the end of the movie where the camera rotates around a human with their hand on an alien and it's very obvious that they have their hand on nothing. But even these scenes end up ruined by mixing them into the bad cg used for this movie. The only scenes that have special effects that don't look like a video game are ones reused from the original Skyline. I didn't even know they were supposed to be practical effect until the credits of the movie where you see some bloopers of actors in the alien suits tripping and falling on set. ![]() I don't know if they put some cg over top of the rubber suits or what, but it looks really terrible. They are so bad in fact, that they make it hard to tell that the rubber suits used for some of the aliens are actually practical effects or cg. The visual effects in Beyond Skyline are pretty bad. The get abducted in LA and end up flying overseas to Southern Asia where they team up with some kind of drug cartel fighting the aliens. In Beyond Skyline we follow a gruff LA detective named Mark Corley (played by Frank Grillo) who, along with his rebellious teen son Trent (played by Jonny Westen) and some other random people get abducted by aliens and have to fight their way out. This time around the movie is more action / science fiction with some martial arts elements involved. Instead of being an alien invasion movie, Beyond Skyline changes the genre up a bit. This movie takes place during the same time as the original then continues the story from Los Angeles to rural Laos in Southern Asia. Beyond Skyline is the unexpected follow-up to the 2010 alien invasion movie Skyline. ![]()
