(1996) The Arrival.

SCIENCE-FICTION.

Another "alien invasion" movie which is a cross between "Invasion Of The Body Snatchers" and "They Live". Starring Charlie Sheen as Zane Kaminsky an astromoner who as a result of coming across some strong sound waves gets turned away as a result of trying to get more gov't funding but continues his speculations because of his perserviance. He then gets interventioned by some strange people including his ex-boss in a way of sabotaging and then elimination. Been done before but not quite like this which at the start may seem like a gov't coverup similar to The X- Files but as the movie progresses becomes much more complicated. Lindsy Crouse also stars as the other astronomer.

2.5 out of 4 stars.
