Got my ticket to watch this tomorrow - matinee for the win
A worthy prequel. Lupita's performance in this 
. She does so much with her eyes and the story and bond between the two main characters is really the heart of the movie so the end tugs at your heartstrings

Thought it was ok. Guess I didn't pay attention to the trailer because I didn't know the story was going to be like that. There were some funny moments but there were also a bunch of dumbass moments that bugged me. Like the nurse trying to turn off what I assume was the generator. The trailer showed some women doing that but I don't recall that happening in the movie. Dude not carrying the cat and/or the bag near the end annoyed me. I just kept thinking she was going to drop the bag or the bag was going to hit something
I would have thrown that guy on the roof but I guess slamming his head on the wall worked the same

These films have always been about the resilience of the human spirit, especially this one. Lupita's character has become cynical due to the fact she's dying. But that day with Eric brings her to remember the positives of life, even in an apocalypse

Suspenseful in Places
PRAISE: 6 years after the original movie there's still gas in the tank in this franchise. This time around the story is about A woman named Sam who ends up finding herself in the middle of an alien invasion but still goes off on a mission that is very personal. I liked the Sam character right from the start and part of it has to do with funny but sympathetic performance from Lupita Nyong’o. I can't talk about the character and not mention her fearless and smart cat Frodo. I can see why the pet was written in to the film.There are charming and heartfelt moments in the movie that are attached to some great suspenseful moments. When the character of Eric is introduced portrayed by Joseph Quinn the charming parts of the film are reved up because they both depend on each other not only for survival but encouragement. The aliens are still an intimidating and vicious force to be reckoned with and really stand out in some key scenes. This is a smaller film than the first 2 but there's enough here to connect all 3 movies and this is still effective as a stand alone film.
PROBLEMS: Sure like any film franchise things that made the first film so great and that inspired sequels,(including box office numbers)starts to thin out. There are definitely moments that are not that involving and there's definitely a been there done that feel around the edges coupled with a few predictable moments.
Scale of 1 to 10 a 7½
