Alien at the Movies

Mayday

Reminiscent of the “Wizard of Oz”, an abused hotel worker Ana (Grace Van Patten) gets a jolt while trying to restore power during a storm. Dazed & confused, Ana crawls through a oven door portal that transports her into a surreal WWII setting with women stationed in a beached U-boat fighting an odd battle of the sexes. When the ladies aren’t frolicking in the ocean, they’re luring soldiers to their deaths with fake distress signals like Circe & her sirens. Now trained to be a sniper, Ana starts to doubt her killer instincts. Another strange dreamlike journey like Dorothy & rabbit hole/looking glass Alice before her.

Alien gives it 2 “ Mary Alpha Yankee Delta Alpha Yankee” stars out of 4.
