You shouldn't watch it at night, you will sleep midway
This was a little disappointing, I was expecting something with more of a trash movie vibes mixing all the crazy historical, extraterrestrial and android themes. The movie try to be serious in the first half, but the drama isn't really good, actually, it's very easy to get upset or annoyed at the key characters, who either are too shallow or extremely annoying.In my opinion the fight scenes in the second half are where the soul of this movie rests, I mean, a historical korean movie where a female lead from the future shoot to death alienoids along with an overpower shaman from the Goryeo Dynasty??? This movie is the perfect setup for a bloody and violent story like Versus (2000) and Bullet Train (2022) that doesn't take itself seriously.
Unfortunately Choi Dong Hoon doesn't seem to notice it and try to follow the example of "Along with the Gods" that succeds to deliver a good drama while conciliating some epics battles, but Alienoid is lost in the middle of these three movies..
P.S: It took me 3 days to finish this and I slept watching it on the first day.
