    Some time after aliens have landed on Earth and pretty much decimated North America, they turn their attentions on Sydney and bent on the destruction of that city - and it's population - arrive in great numbers with overwhelming technological and military superiority. Luckily, though, there are a band of plucky resistance fighters whom, along with a few of the aliens sympathetic to their cause, are working together to find a way to thwart this seemingly unstoppable invasion. Well to be fair - the visual effects are not half bad: plenty of lasers and space ships, pyrotechnics and gun battles - it does not hang around. The acting and the dialogue, though, well that's where it parts company from the obvious similarity with "Independence Day" (1996) because here, that is all really pretty dreadful. Hunky Dan Ewing's "Matt" leads the charge but there is plenty of internal power-struggling with "Bartlett" (Temuera Morrison) and "Hayes" (Daniel Gillies) to clutter up the already pretty convoluted characterisations. It's ridiculously long, too - almost like two or three episodes of a weak mini-series rolled into one. Perhaps it did wonders for the sale of rubber "Sea Devil" masks, but otherwise this is all pretty predictable and disappointing right from the start

An untold chapter in the Mass Effect saga, following the early career of Alliance Marine, James Vega, as he leads a squad of elite special forces into battle against a mysterious alien threat known as The Collectors. Stationed at a colony in a remote star system, Vega and his troops must protect the inhabitants from an invasion of the deadly insectoid warriors determined to collect the population for unknown purposes. Soon after the attack, Vega's commanding officer falls in battle, forcing the young officer to embrace the responsibility of leadership for the colony's survival. Having idolized Earth's greatest hero and warrior, Commander Shepard (the central character in the Mass Effect video games), the young and idealistic Vega must now make life and the death decisions that will effect not only the lives of his squad, but the lives of every person in the colony - all of whom he has sworn to protect...
