I enjoyed it, its a nice little monster movie. Peter O'Toole was very good, and Ben Affleck was good for a laugh in his cowboy hat. They really should have had someone show him the proper way to wear a hat.

An unintentional blooper was a scene where they look at expended cartridges on the floor of the Police Station, and they are blank rounds. You can tell because they are crimped.
