5.0 out of 5 stars They Are Among Us--a good scary sci-fi movie!, July 18, 2005

At the beginning of this movie, the music, the rain, and the graphics all set the mood perfectly. You know that you are in for a scary hour and a half. The premise of the story is good and made me wonder, "what if these things could actually happen?" I thought the actors/actresses played their roles well and were all believeable in their parts. On the technical side of it, the editing was very effective, especially toward the end of the movie with the numerous flashbacks. The director also did an admirable job and the ending left me thinking there might be a sequel in the works. I would highly recommend They Are Among Us to everyone who is a sci-fi fan and also to all who just occasionally like a good scary movie.

From the cover you would think this is a just corny, oddball movie but it is the opposite using reqular things and make them suspensful.
It is a tv film but suprisingly good.

3.0 out of 5 stars Good watchable Scifi made for TV movie, August 13, 2010

This review is from: They Are Among Us (DVD)

This movie is like a sneak attack. The cover suggests a cheap direct to video film, but what you get is a pretty cool Sci-Fi film. The plot borrows heavily (steals?) from much better movies and blends the ideas into its own little concoction. There is really nothing new here and the primary plot centers around aliens that can invade or body snatch us.

The production values are impressive for a made for TV movie. It looks more polished than most movies like this and the special effects are pretty decent. This movie doesn't rely too heavily on CGI, which I'm very thankful for, and the in-camera effects are mostly cool. The final fight sequence was a little convoluted for me and I just didn't buy it.

The acting was very good for the most part. It's hard to go wrong with the veteran actors that are in this film. It's also really cool to see Clint Eastwood's daughter in one of her first films. The movie's dialogue does tend to bog down in places and I lost interest a couple of times.

Without giving anything away, I didn't like the ending. It's obvious they were attempting to use this as a potential series. I don't know why a person who likes SCIFI wouldn't like this film. While I do like this film it never really rises above the level of a made for TV movie. The stolen plots and some boring dialogue do tend to drag some of the movie down.

This had the potential for being a much better rated movie if the production company had focused on doing more than just steal ideas from others and clean up some of the dialogue.
