I thought it was great fun. As an adult, sure there were plot holes and goofs. However the monster was pretty good, and it actually made me laugh out loud several times. As I remember Goonies made me feel about the same way. So people canI thought it was great fun. As an adult, sure there were plot holes and goofs.

It'd about three oddball kids at a summer camp and another one they meet. An alien invasion hits, and the kids end up trying to get a military data device to the authorities. I rather liked this one.

The film is fairly amusing, and the four leads are pretty likable. The kids all have the same ol' worn trope of hidden, personal struggles, but the screenwriter seems to realize this and makes sure not to spend too much time on it. Cinematography consists of good lighting and some nice southern California scenery.

There is some glaringly uncomfortable sterotypical black guy dialogue as only written by a white man. The romance is forced. The movie doesn't really seem to know how juvenile or mature it is supposed to be.

Overall, I found this to be light fare. Not much of substance, but the movie is just having fun.
