The idea sounded solid, but the execution was lost somewhere. It's not that it didn't keep me moderately entertained for the run time, but overall after the credits ran I didn't know what type of movie it was. It's not a comedy or horror or action. I'm just not sure how to describe it. Watchable but forgettable.

I couldn't take it after the first 20 minutes. Is it supposed to be funny or just crazy awkward?
Not one line or scene would ever take place in real life. Which isn't always a problem in movies...if they're funny in any way.
I'm really trying my best to understand how anyone involved in this movie thought a single bit of it was working.

The movies of recent seem to be plummeting to new depths, bad acting, stupid plots, you know how bad this is going to be in the first 2 minutes.....and then it gets worse. The only reason I can see that this movie was made, was for some kind of tax dodge. Not funny, not engaging just very poor film making from it seems, people who have no clue. Just awful.
Save your time or watch a test pattern instead, you will thank me for this warning.

Just skip...it is not funny, not scary, not dramatic, it absolutely has no redeeming qualities....just skip. This is something middle schoolers would write and produce.
I think most of the reviews slating this movie are unfair! For what it is, it's pretty funny. I'm quick to turn movies off when they are slow and boring, but this one had a certain charm to it and that's thanks to the actors and actresses chosen to play the characters. Is it perfect? No of course not. But it's better than a lot of movies that somehow get a better rating, I think the cast need a bit more appreciation for the roles they played.

There aren't enough words to describe how awful this is. I would have rather been violently ill for an hour and fifty two minutes, than having been exposed to this rubbish. I expect this kind of crap to land on streaming services like Stan, but Netflix honestly can't have been awake when they approved this.

If you're looking for funny and easy to watch after a long day this won't do you wrong. It's super dumb but really funny. Lags in the middle a bit but finishes well. Actors are great, writing is witty, storyline is different, effects were surprisingly good.
The worst ever! I was cringing after the first 7 mins😖 I tried to watch on but just couldn't bring myself to finish it! What a terrible movie, a complete nightmare!

This is the kind of movie in which the director inserts aliens to find a producer.
Any one who has has grinded through the corporate world can immediately relate to the geniusness of the script. Corporate management is shown in a sarcastic caricaturous way and the story is really about the struggles of the workers.
Director flips between subtle dry humour vs outrageously exaggerated scenes in others. Graphics have been kept to minimum and decent. If you expect a full action movie with loads of aliens you will be disappointed. Actors are cast correctly and while they won't win any academy awards, they are funny and emotive and goofy enough.

This might be best viewed after a couple
It's made intentionally bad and they did it quite well
Hardly a cerebral movie, but if you're in the mood for some nonsensical entertainment then it's worth a watch.

I couldn't even sit through this entire movie... 50 minutes into it and literally nothing has happened? Just super awkward and terrible acting. It's not even funny and has nothing that really grabs your attention.
Talkative and stupid movie. This is the first movie that I skip in the middle. After watching 10 mins, It's grade F movie in netflix 2022. Don't watch this movie if you don't want to headache.
It is truly hard to watch at times, it brain hurting stupid, not funny stupid.
But then again it has its moments. While "The Office" I couldn't watch for 10 minutes, this doesn't pretend to be more than it is.
Imagine its still the 80'ies it helps.

Movie started with a bang but after 10 minutes became so boring I cried! I made it to 3/4 and just could not continue. Actors are terrible and movie made no sense. Boring dialogues and terrible story line.

I really lobed this film. Love, friendship, aliens and comedy. What's not to love? It was 100% mad from start to finish and I loved every minute of it.

"Three best friends band together to defend their valuable mining company from monstrous aliens looking to plunder and exterminate", says the IMDB summary.
The film won't offer you that.
It's like those 1950's scifi-B-movie posters that showed epic images that never actually appeared in the film itself.
Still, since this is a South African film, I went in thinking this film about foreign beings stealing all the goods from an African mine was going to be a layered story in the form of a fun scifi film.
It is not.
Although nothing is brilliant, the cinematography, acting, and CGI is at least adequate enough to make it a waste that the story is boring and flat. The plot doesn't start until after an hour, and the climax is 10 suspenseless minutes. I find it sad to say since people put work into this film, but this is one that is highly likely to be a waste of your time.

All the African content in Netflix these days are political drama/ struggle. It is refreshing to have something ridiculous and witty to laugh at when the day ends! This film is not here to change the world it's here for us to laugh and forget the drama and problems we face today in our country and it does just that! Do yourself a favor and escape into this ridiculous world ! 👏🏻

The amount of people who hold the same standards for movies that are funneled straight to streaming services (in this case Netflix) to the same standards as a movie such as Maverick you've got to drop $15 dollars per ticket to watch with actors who're paid more than this entire movie's total budget and what they want out of a movie completely baffles me, it really does.
I would recommend this movie to anyone who is looking for a comedy that keeps a good amount of laughs throughout the entire movie with a cool sci-fi twist. The cast is amazing and everything about this film is done very well. It's not one of those films where people go in thinking it will be great because of all the actors or actress starring in the movie which can sometimes make the film seem far less than what it actually could be. This however kept me interested from start to finish and I left with wanting more.

First time I'm writing a movie review in my life. Why doing this now? Well because of this huge pile of ... that just infected my eyes and wasted my time. Most crazy thing about it, I watched this movie during work hours so I got payed while doing it. Yet still it somehow got me agitated enough to go online, register an account and rant about it. Something I've never done before.
Is it because it's not funny at all, the weak storytelling or the fact that this movie has only 10 min. Of actual science-fiction scenes in it? Yeah all of that, plus the given that it litteraly gets worse by the minute. Don't watch this!

Don't waste your time unless you love extremely ridiculous stuff.
First 55minutes nothing important for the structure of the movie.
A bunch of meaningless stuff... makes people angry?
Wondering maybe I'm the one who's weird.

I never ever write stuff just to be heard , but honestly.
This really is trash.
Anyone whom has watched more than 5 films in their life who gives this a 9 of 10 is ..,,. Well. Paid. . Please , Trust me it's absolutely a waste of your time.
Full disclosure. I only watched 13 mins. So adjust your trust of my review accordingly.
