"We\'re fighting simultaneous attacks in the last metropolitan areas."

Sony has finally debuted an actual trailer for the sci-fi fan film

series of science fiction books, starring Chloë Grace Moretz as a girl in the middle of an alien invasion trying to find her missing brother. The cast includes Liev Schreiber, Maika Monroe, Nick Robinson, Maggie Siff, Maria Bello and Ron Livingston. They\'re trying to push this as the next big sci-fi alien invasion thriller, but it looks like a cheesy mash-up of

, or something like that. Not really my kind of sci-fi. You?

In the new film The 5th Wave, four waves of increasingly deadly extra-terrestrial attacks have left most of Earth decimated. Cassie (Chloë Grace Moretz) is on the run, desperately trying to save her younger brother.

It does indeed look cheesy but I\'m also sort of curious

Tought so too. Mayby I\'ll sneak into a theather and won\'t tell nobody...

This I want to see! Big spaceships, destruction and a little bit a end of the world feel about it! A few days back I did see San Andreas and it was fun to see, so I am in for this one. By the way Cop car is a very good movie ,loved it!

I don\'t want to see anything Liev Schreiber is in (not that I wanted to see this anyway) Can\'t stand the guy.

I don\'t see how it would take longer than about 5 minutes for them to wipe us all out. Save us Ray Donovan!

Looks like a fabulous TNT Original Movie. But as a feature...at least Chloe Moretz will act well.

Another day, another teen sci-fi post apocalyptic near future end of times book to film adaptation *sighs* come on Hollywood really. As if we are not getting tired of this crap already.

This one is really bad man, at least the others had better VFX...

Yeah, story concept seems kind of interesting, but the themes as expressed by voiceover dialog feel really tired.

Meh - looks ok. Will look forward to home theater viewing.

Making a movie where the aliens are "humans" in disguise, is just a cheap copout. This story has definitely been done to death.

Yeah, it just screams we saved a bundle on special effects. That, and using old factories as a barren future or burnt out world... ooOOooo...

True, a lot of saving on special effects. But, then again, that (special effects) doesn\'t really help every time. I\'m afraid the genre is contaminated with every one of these choices. I guess, solid story and execution is only what saves the whole thing. So, still, this deserves to be seen. But I also agree on having some reservations about it ...

And the \'twist\' is the trusted leader (Schreiber) has been one of them all the way? I mean, usually he is the bad guy, isn\'t he? And other than that; one or two waves would be sufficient to kill us all. If they can cause giant tsunamis they can do anything. But the question is; if we are so puny, why bother to kill us all? Can\'t they just proceed their real plans while most of us are still alive? What can human survivors do to stop them anyway?
