Fixed. Seriously though, how is it that movies like this are still being made today? There is no sense of drama right from the start because of a predictable POS script.
Beginning of the movie: Character A discovers that something is wrong, and it's being covered up by the evil government. Character A needs to convince everyone that he is right, while at the same time everyone else thinks that he's shit. He is required to look for his loved the ones in the process, who incidentally, also think that he is full of shit.
-----
Middle of the movie: Turns out that character A was right all along, and thankfully he has had a head start, along with spare time to save/pick up his loved ones.
-----
Character A: still running away from a)disaster b)aliens c)sci-fi cliche from last 30 years of cinema.
-----
Ending: Lost love rekindled, hero ending and a bunch of fucking Americans clapping.
Bonus: give character A superhuman ability when driving, diving, dodging stuff, and fixing things at worst possible moments.
