“Captive State” Trailer

Post by Nutso »


Set in a Chicago neighborhood nearly a decade after an occupation by an extra-terrestrial force, “Captive State” explores the lives on both sides of the conflict – the collaborators and dissidents

Wasn’t this done a decade ago under the title “Falling Skies?”

I was just thinking that myself. I only ever saw one or two episodes of that. It didn't look very good.

Despite Noah Wyle's best efforts, it wasn't.

In the comments, people keep asking, "What is this movie about?" I think it's an alien invasion movie where the invasion was benevolent, like in 'V," but became more insidious over the 10 years.

I don't know about the invasion, but it seems like the aliens are largely just in "Overlord" positions, not often seen by people - most of the governing is done by collaborators. Saves money on CGI, I guess.

I dunno. This isn't grabbing me, but might be worth a watch.

Same. I like John Goodman though. I would give it a try for him.
