I thought the alien part of the movie was a secondary plot line to the overwhelming grief, the numbness of mind, heart and soul; and loss of faith that Gibson's character and family were experiencing. This is a movie about a man who used God as a crutch his whole life, avoiding conflict and reality until he was forced to. Well-written and very human, this so-called sci-fi thriller was more of a love story - Gibson rediscovers that despite his tragedy he learns to love again, to love his family and his God. Perhaps more of a sign of the times in the world today. After all, the only sci-fi part is that we need aliens to destroy our planet and it's inhabitants, no need, we're doing a great job all on our own. Just wait, aliens.
