everything else is REALLY cliche as hell, which i guess is part of the point, but without those kids performances this movie woulda been wack.....everything involving them i liked...the rest? i gave a pass cause the kids really were THAT good...

David gallagher(sp) was great too, and i didn't even recognize him...as were the bf parents, they did a great job with what they had....

...and i didn't have a problem with the ending....but when the bus got attacked i initially thought it was cause the alien had touched the girl, sensed how much she cared for him, and wanted to keep him safe....
