what a joke.

Really? I found this to be one of only like 10-15 really good movies that came out last year.

I found this one of the few really good movies that came out last year, the others being Sisters Brothers, Bad Times at the El Royale, Aquaman, First Man, and Collete

A very good review that explains what the movie was doing:

I thought it was a drug affair vision and the ending was good enough for Infinity to be in... I read the Dark Alien as being Infinity possibly who wanted to beat the humans. Really mysterious way to do it mimicing her movements. You'd be hard pressed to call a movie with Infinity Being in it , a joke.

I agree. A poor film with lousy characters. It did get better in 2nd half, but a lost cause by then.

For a MUCH better film with similar themes, try the Russian film Stalker from back in the early. 1980’s.
