I watched the whole series because I'm unreasonably stubborn.
Very little of the plot of this movie is in any way coherent. For the first half of the episodes most of the characters are not even aware that an invasion is taking place. Something screwy is going on but no one seems to know what.
When it becomes clear that Aliens are here the premise that they are trying to wipe out the entire human race one human at a time is ludicrous. Simple math would tell you that to eradicate 7 billion human at a rate of say a hundred thousand a day would take nearly 200 years to accomplish.
A hand full of aliens are charged with the task, generously shown to be well less that a hundred between the US, Britain and Afghanistan go about knocking us of one at a time.
What this movie is really about is the emotional crises the main characters are all dealing with. The actors do themselves credit portraying their characters but it all seems kind of beside the point.
The ending is a let down. Everyone is celebrating victory but the movie makes it clear that we won a battle but have no chance to win the war.
Save your time. Rewatch The Thing or something.
