If you saw the trailers for this movie before its release you would think your getting an all out humans vs aliens action movie but that's not what this is.This is more of a suspense/thriller movie with a few small action sequences thrown in.

After the earth is invaded by aliens the humans are colonised and put to work by them in exchange for their protection.No more wars..crime is down etc etc

After one failed attempt at starting a war another one is put into place and this is the main focus of the film.All is not as it seems though and when we get to the final 5 minutes of the movie all is made apparent.Not a classic in the sci-fi genre but certainly worth a look.

Interesting enough series
First point I haven't seen the film so can't say how it compares to that. Overall I enjoyed this it was an entertaining enough series to watch over a few evenings. The casting and acting is decent and the premise interesting. There are quite a few plot holes that require you to suspend disbelief but if you can look past these it is an decent enough series. The season finale was a little bit disappointing it is obviously setting up for a second series but it did feel a bit predictable and didn't really deliver the suspense it was trying to which was a shame as the 2 episodes before were much more exciting so felt a bit of an anticlimax.

In The Name Of Freedom
The Siege- is a good action movie, that the plot of this movie, is still happening today.

The plot: After terrorists attack a bus in Brooklyn, a Broadway theater and FBI headquarters, FBI anti-terrorism expert Anthony Hubbard (Denzel Washington) teams up with CIA agent Elise Kraft (Annette Bening) to investigate. Soon, martial law is declared in New York City, and General William Devereaux (Bruce Willis), a sadistic racist, is put in command. When Devereaux begins rounding up Arab-Americans and forcing them into a detention camp, Hubbard and Kraft must fight back in the name of freedom.

Like i said its a good action suspense thriller. Its only downfall is that we have seen this before, but its still a good movie.
