Laughably bad. Charlie Sheen is even worse than usual. The writing doesn't even make sense, as the aliens could've easily killed Sheen's character a hundred times over before the movie even got halfway through. Why didn't they kill him? Oh, I know why: because he's the protagonist, and if the protagonist dies then the movie's over.
