As the heading says there was no reason I should have liked this movie, but I did. After passing on it several times over the last several months I finally decided to watch it after checking a few IMDb reviews. Fortunately I was not disappointed and agree with most of the reviews that I read. The movie is a very straightforward battle between exiled humans seeking a new world and more or less peace loving aliens defending their own. Without giving away any spoilers I will say that the movie succeeded at keeping my attention and showing enough action to make an otherwise very common theme entertaining. This is not a movie you are going to watch over and over again or run out to buy on DVD but if you have 60 or 90 minutes to kill and simply want to relax and watch something that is more or less fun and entertaining then go ahead.
