SPOILER: The main plot line in the story is that the protagonist, Dr. Aki Ross, needs to find seven "spirits" with unique bio-energy waveforms to neutralize the main antagonists, the "phantoms" -- spectral monsters that arrived crashing on Earth upon an asteroid that landed decades before the events of the film, and their first outbreak nearly wiped out humanity. Throughout the film, Ross experiences strange visions of a war waging on a strange alien planet; but eventually they show her a revelation about the true nature of the phantoms -- they are not an invading army, they are actually ghosts. The meteor that brought them to Earth was a piece of their world sent flying into space after its destruction. The spirits of the alien world are angry and resentful, explaining their hostility towards Earth's lifeforms.

Several characters are administered shots of pain killers or a sedative from a futuristic medical gun, in proper medical form. Later in the film, a main character suffers a grievous injury but refuses pain medication that is offered by a doctor among the group.

A black character from the main cast does eventually die, but he is not the first, refreshingly enough.

A female member of the "Dead-Eyes" squadron is vocally angry when another female character refers to the whole squadron generally as "men". Her squad mates tease her mildly for her reaction. Same character is also ribbed for "gaining weight" by a fellow squad mate in another scene during a mandatory scan examination.

SPOILER: By the film's end, most of the main cast has died. During the final confrontation to eliminate the phantoms, a character romantically close to the main character sacrifices himself to finish the fight, but not before giving her a tearful good-bye. The world is saved, but the final scene has the main hero cradling her lover's lifeless body in her arms and somberly looking to a "brighter tomorrow" over the horizon.

In a brief scene during a phantom outbreak, a flying phantom phases through the cockpit of a hovercraft in flight. The ship keels immediately afterwards -- indicating the pilot was killed in the moment -- and then crashes back unto the tarmac it took off from and upon screaming bystanders.

A military officer is shot in friendly fire during a phantom attack. He lies on the floor, nursing his stomach where he was hit. Lifts his hand in shock to see its covered with his own blood. Another character is impaled by debris in the aftermath of a vehicle crash.
