Annihilation is about a science team that goes into a bubble that has started to consume the world. Once inside they realize that DNA is being changed, changing all forms of life to become either plan matter or horrid creatures. The story follows Lena as she ventures through the hellish landscape as she reaches the light house which was the point of origin of the phenomena.
The film isn't anything special in my opinion, it has a very cliche story with some boring at time scenes that is just the characters arguing with each other as they stand around the forest.
One of the notable things about the film is once they enter the bubble the whole film gets a warm pint tint like they are inside a actually bubble that is detached from our world, and this has made me think more about artistic styling for a location. If something is a certain way how do I replicate that or if there is a style I want to create making sure I stick to that without losing the desired effect.
The other thing I thought was cool was the alien shown at the end, initially starting out as a form of starts then becoming a compact eye looking shape where it becomes like a kaleidoscope, this is cool because unlike most alien creatures it isn't nessarily a formed creature but instead an alien entity creating some stunning visual effects.
I'd rate it like a 6/10 maybe that a bit too generous but I really liked the alien scene even if it might of dragged a bit.
