The earth is going to be invaded in five days says a man from Andromeda called Jaelen to a dedicated ufologist Robert Casey. The latter tries to get this information out to the world. Meanwhile Jaelen's human partner Alyssa who is expecting their baby has been abducted somewhere. Eventually the earth is invaded. They are some of the strands in this film and it sounds promising but it is really slow. It does show it's low budget by the number of talking scenes and most of it is telling and not showing.
There is a prologue that states mankind concealed lots of unborn babies in stasis to be revived when the invaders had gone but at the end of the film it says mankind survived because Andromedan space ships took millions of people away to a suitable planet in their galaxy, which made the prologue superfluous. The invading aliens are the Draconians who apparently have been in cahoots with NASA for decades, which is a bit silly. The moon is also a hologram!
The music score, direction, acting and photography are dull. Towards the end there is an extract playing from Dvorak's 'From The New World' to add a grandiose 2001:A Space Odyssey vibe but it doesn't work. Poor Dvorak doesn't get a mention in the credits either. Give this one a miss.
