Alien Conquest

About This Movie

Alien Conquest (2021) is a curious mix of action and sci-fi that doesn't shy away from its B-movie roots. The film features sibling astronomers, which is an interesting angle, teaming up with military forces to fight off these relentless alien invaders. The pacing feels a bit uneven at times, but it adds to that almost nostalgic feel of 80s flicks. Practical effects are a highlight, giving a certain gritty realism to the alien encounters, which is so refreshing compared to CGI-heavy films. The performances are serviceable, but it’s the ensemble dynamic that brings a certain charm. It’s definitely not groundbreaking, but there’s an earnestness that just pulls you in, making it distinctive in its own way.
