How are you sure they aren't aliens? The movie never says they aren't aliens. The giant alien ship would suggest they are aliens. When was the last time you saw it? Maybe it just hasn't aged very well? It's just not a very good movie. The main female protagonist seems like she was cast to be the sigourney weaver equivalent. nope. haha. I may enjoy it though, ill add it to my list. |

I thought The Abyss was pretty awful too. The Terminator films and Aliens are the only Cameron films I've liked. His films are just too pretentious for me, and that's saying a lot.

It's moving, exciting, has good characters, an interesting premise and interesting setting.

The humans also have a giant ship but that doesn't make them aliens. Two or three years ago. |

Have to geek out and say i think thiswould have made for a great video game. Similar to Bioshock in some instances(even has some FPS gun angles). Tilda Swinton can play a cold hearted bitch like no other. The film is so linear, you follow the same character going straight, level by level, in one direction. I love these kinds of ryhtmic, point to point films, the new judge dredd is another example of this. It feels rewarding to gain inisght piece by piece. Curious to read the original comic it's based on now. |

As far as your spoiler comment goes... Spoiler for spoiler:
Sure I can, based on the fact that they live on Earth. |

Because it was blatant, and easy to deduce? Either you are very easily surprised or being intentionally coy. They/it had a positive encounter with the female prior. Quote:
