Two worlds are connected and one of the worlds has a lot of monsters who somehow live without anything to eat and also are persistent assholes.
The actual movie starts two thirds in, and there are so many terrible writing decisions; oh god it's so bad.

An old ace fighter pilot is dusted off to instruct for an impossible mission.

An optics specialist is sent to investigate the unusual readings the military is getting from his equipment.
A solid movie all around. Great action and a good world, but with enough fuzzy science and The A-Team-style jury-rigging to rivet it solidly to TV-movie quality.
