  It is a movie like Six Sense you have to watch over and over to understand,the ending could different.

Alien Race 07/20/2009 
  The movie was excellent but near the end it lost the suspention of disbelief factor and got way out on a limb and didn't make sense. For instance why not just pick up some earthlings explain what is happening and choose the best DNA stock to keep the species surviving and save some of their most valuable contributions to society? And why have the end event be total devastation where no one could survive? And why not take the father and mother along to help the children to survive? Why not debrief the children so they can be taught to survive?It could be made to be believable but the ending would have to be changed and some explaination as to why the Aliens chose to do things this way. Or if Nicalas Cage did something to actually prevent a (Less Drastic) devastation at the end.
