Review of Skylines

Skylines (2020)
10/10
A good little action sci-fi for what it's worth.
18 December 2020
For a low-budget, practically independent, finalized and edited during quarantine, this movie it is what it is: confident and with heart.

They have a decent cast and sfx that looks way above what the money could have supplied them with. The story is a little out of focus in some parts but it follows through just fine in the end for our hero (Lindsey Morgan). There are a few scenes of questionable CGI but for a movie that is mostly practical effects and alien suits, it's very obvious where the budget went to keep it from looking too cheap. Not everything is perfect.

The characters are fun and the actors clearly enjoyed their roles. It's nice to see B-Movie action stars and familiar faces brought together for this flick.

Obviously it won't be for everyone who is looking for a giant epic third installment compared to other movie sagas. Might be out of place for those who haven't seen the previous movie, but the beginning does give you an introduction.
