Review

Mediocre sci-fi action film. Not as good as the first one but still watchable if you just want easy entertaining without too much thinking.

Soldiers will find a place where is one man behind the locked door. They will find out that he is a murderer who has killed his own team member on higher rank. One of soldiers release him from his prison and he will join to fight against aliens. This time aliens are getting smarter and they will go inside the human bodies. They will infect people by going inside and infected humans will transform slowly to something non human until they start to kill other humans.

This was mostly mediocre film with lack of any kind of depth. There is random persons without enough back stories to get them interesting and then there is random aliens what is not explained how they got smarter, when they started to go inside people etc. so lots of plot is not opened enough at all. Anyway in this kind of movie it didn't bothered me too much to ruin movie totally since more interesting stuff was stylish and brutal CGI to be semi splatter movie. Watchable, but far from great movie.
