There is a tipping point for awfulness. Where Springtime for Hitler stops being poor taste and you start to get the giggles. While this movie isn't offensive, it is downright silly.
::spoilers from here on:: The movie opens with about 30 minutes of completely gratuitous character development. When the flashy blue lights start to hymo-tize people you know the only thing that can save you from the baddies are some powered venetian blinds in a penthouse.
I love movies where 5,000 people are sucked into the sky and the main characters' response is "Let's go have a closer look!" I laughed out loud on at least six different occasions with this movie. Apparently blowing up the mother ship with a nuke will only make them mad. If you really want to kill an alien, you need to hit it with an SUV, use a fire-ax to the back of the "head", a cinderblock, and then if you really want to hurt it-- punch it.
Nukes also seem to have an effect of about one city block, but be careful, because if you look at a nuke with a telescope- you might feel some discomfort for a couple seconds. Penthouse windows also seem immune to shock waves and sound travels faster than light in this movie.
The baddies have some rather "yonic" attributes. I think one of the writers has some bad history with a prior girlfriend. Maybe there is another layer of symbolism in the movie I haven't decipher yet-- pregnancy is also a plot point.
The last movie I saw that had me laughing this hard was Cliffhanger.
