If you're looking for a movie that ask you are we alone in the universe then you should take a look at The Darkest Hour. Ben(Max Minghella and Sean(Emiler Hirsch), two young American men, travel to Moscow to sell their social networking/party finding software only to find out that their software is already being sold by the Russian team they were to sell it to, led by Skylar(Joel Kinnaman) a Swedish businessman. After finding out that their software had been solid; they decided to take a night out in Moscow; where they meet two American girls named Natalie(Olivia Thirlby) and Anne(Rachael Taylor); when all of a sudden they were distracted by the power outage. Everyone then persisted outside and saw that the power was out everywhere and in the sky appear something like the aurora-lights. One of the light came down from the sky and landed when a police officer approached it, it disintegrated him. This cause everyone to panic and run to the nearest building to hide. While in panic Ben, Sean, Skylar, Natalie, and Anne heed in a storage closet for several days. When they came out of hiding they found out that everyone was gone. Scared by the fact that their enemy is invisible and protected by shields of some kind; they decided to run to the embassy. When they got there all they found where book logs stating other place had been attacked. With that sinking into their minds, they now plot to find a way to survive and detected the invisible aliens by using light-bulbs. When I first saw The Darkest Hour I thought it was going to be kinda boring; but it turn out to be a pretty decent movie. You will have have to watch it for yourselves to see who survives and whether or not did we find a way to defeat our unwelcome guest. You can watch The Darkest Hour at solarmovie.eu. After seeing The Darkest Hour I would have to give this movie a 4 out of 5.
