The setting itself is a bit interesting, and I also watched it because I liked the theme of "Alien Invasion", knowing that it was a teen movie. But the presentation method is too weak. As a teen film, the biggest flaw is that it is not cool and dazzling enough. The heroine did not gain any skill points, the main plot is to escape and escape, and incidentally ambiguous with the male protagonists. Nanzhu seems to have some room to play. One is a little handsome boy on campus who has a lot of room for growth and seems to have the opportunity to be on the cusp of saving all mankind at any time. The other is a model with zero acting skills. Still look good eyes. It's a pity that nothing can be inspired from this triangular relationship until the end.
I don't know if I'm busy explaining the love triangle or what I'm doing, but I didn't make it clear what happened to the key aliens. I thought I could hang the audience's appetite and talk about it in the next episode. It's too naive!
In short, I really didn't see from the movie that the original novel was sold out by the gods and horses.
