The 1080p/AVC-encoded presentation of 'Beyond Skyline' in 2.39:1 on Blu-ray delivers a decent, filmic quality with notable drawbacks such as noise in darker scenes and softer details due to handheld filming style and restrictive lighting, yet impresses with intricate CGI and vibrant daytime sequences.

Audio: 69

The DTS-HD Master Audio 5.1 soundtrack for 'Beyond Skyline' is loud and effective, bringing immersive action with explosive setpieces and clear dialogue, despite its occasionally overly aggressive nature.

Extra: 6

Beyond Skyline Blu-ray offers no supplements or bonus content, with only a couple of trailers on startup, suggesting a minimal effort release.

Movie: 51

Despite being a low-budget sequel to the critically-panned Skyline, Beyond Skyline outshines its predecessor with intensified action, improved special effects, and stronger performances, especially from Frank Grillo. Writer-director Liam O'Donnell crafts a surprisingly enjoyable, albeit standard, alien invasion film.
