starburst - review - 8/10
Invasion Planet Earth is an entertaining twist on the invasion theme that injects some thought about our planet and how we've messed it up. A science fiction film for our Extinction Rebellion era.
BRITFLICKS - Review 8/10
INVASION PLANET EARTH has that old fashioned thing that film makers used to have called, ‘vision!'
midlands movies - Review 8/10
The film doesn’t hold back by tackling global issues and inserting well-handled action sequences and a dash of drama into its narrative. Bask in Invasion Planet Earth's remarkable ambitions which aim for the sky but actually hit the stars.
Vulture hound - review - 4/5
An achievement in itself. This is the sort of low budget science fiction film that deserves to be seen.
blazing minds - review - 4/5
Fan of science fiction will really love this movie!
film stories - review - 3/5
There’s a pretty set path for low budget sci-fi movies that, to its credit, Invasion Planet Earth wilfully ignores.
The guardian - review - 2/5
Ludicrously Ambitious Low Cost Sci-Fi!
film & tv now - review - 3/5
INVASION PLANET EARTH is a mix of influences, from its’ BUCK ROGERS opening coupled with SPACE 1999-style music and the subtext of Tarkovsky’s classic 1972 film SOLARIS. Some decent CGI FX, the spirit of ATTACK THE BLOCK and INDEPENDENCE DAY.
