   High above a war-torn future Earth, Cmdr. Jack Harper is maintaining the   
   planet's defensive drones when a crippled starship enters his territory. Its   
   sole occupant, a mysterious woman, leads Harper to shocking truths about   
   humankind's legacy.

   Very good action SF film.  Cruise delivers another excellent performance,  as   
   does Freeman.  The plot device of the alien whatever needing earths water of   
   course makes no senesce (the galaxy is full of H2O), but maybe it's just a   
   nasty homicidal physcho.    
    The only real nit is that the end is way to derivative of Independence Day.
