Not only is everything in this movie cliche, but nothing even makes any sense. A partial list.
We open with a Christmas party where a TV is showing ... anyone? Soccer, of course. Because it's a Christmas party so of course soccer.
The small caliber machine guns that never run out of ammo and are never once reloaded have little to no effect on the monsters, so, of course, we should bring those into the future to unsuccessfully kill the monsters.
Apparently black women rule the world in the future. All those in command were women, usually black. There were no men in charge in the entire movie save Chris Pratt.
They take completely untrained civilians, arm them, and drop them randomly in space over a large city from a thousand feet with no plan, no leader and no clue what to look for. Most all of them die from hitting the pavement, but some miraculously live by landing in a roof top pool. Is this the authors way of telling us that black women are incompetent morons that make terrible leaders?
Aliens right out of all aliens movie in the past 40 years. If I asked you to draw me a picture of one before you saw the movie you'd likely come very close. Giant mouth full of sharp teeth, worm looking tentacles, slimy, Jaba the Hut skin, crazy strong and make low level clicking sounds.
Aliens too stupid to build any types of weapons to defeat others/defend themselves, but had no problem building a space ship and navigating it to another galaxy.
Constant action, noise and explosions like in a Transformers movie with no plot except to communicate "action". I'm sorry, was that a spoiler?
Chris Pratt was good so I gave it an extra star.
