It made 6.6 times its production budget boxoffice wise and then adding DVD/BluRay sales and tv rights it's easily way beyond $100million mark.. which means that it made 10times its budget or more.

Oh that's not to bad but I would kinda expect more from a movie like that. I seen the movie I loved the visuals but other then that it kinda sucked

No it didn't suck. There are many overhyped movies with really bad acting, plot and characters earning too much money only thanks to marketing.
Skyline is far from a perfect movie BUT it's much better than many marketing hyped blockbusters.
