at first retelling the original's LA invasion from street (and underground) level, and then borrowing from the follow-ups to The Purge both lead actor Frank Grillo, and a see-what-sticks approach to sequel making.

Beyond Skyline becomes an enjoyably loopy thrill-ride, full of sudden shifts and turns.

[Frank] Grillo and his castmates play for serious, but there's still an undeniable wink in their performances, as if they know what they're saying defies logic. It's like if CSI: Miami got invaded by aliens - and Grillo is doing his best David Caruso.

Beyond Skyline, beyond belief, is beyond good.

A mindblowingly silly, seriously extravagant and really mostly un-called for experience, but one the right audience will have a totally wild and unexpected blast with.

You'll certainly find better alien mayhem films than Beyond Skyline, but some creative special effects, interesting fights, and fun, alien brain-sucking will keep you moderately -- but solidly -- entertained.

Fast-paced and colorful enough to rate as a solid guilty pleasure.
