I allowed my GF to drag me to this because i made her watch the Expendables, i should have made her pay as well. This movie is typicly what I've come to expect from M. Night, at least they wernt tryin to run away from the wind... As I walked out of this movie i found myself wondering if he worked on this during "Airbender" and the distraction is what made that movie suck as well. Unfortunatly as long as ppl like my GF exist (love you baby) his movies will continue to make money and he will keep getting pictures. Lets hope some vindictive fanboy Ices him in his driveway one day and saves the world more of this garbage.
Im glad I dont listen to critics cause this movie is was nowhere near as bad as they say. I say anything that will make my adhd 9 year old sit still for 2 hours is alhright by me. Its a good action movie for kids that doesnt take itself to seriously and remains entertaining throughout. I enjoyed it, 4 stars.
I liked both the movies but I was kinda hoping to see Jacob rip out Edwards throat and lift his leg to urinate on his still convulsing body before wisking Bella away to a secret mountain retreat as his spoils of victory, VAMPIRES SHOULDNT GLITTER, sorry, its h0m0, everything else about the movie was cool but seriously, Edward has got to be on the downlow.
I didnt want to see this but my buddy at work kept raving about it enough to convince me to fork out five bucks at the matinee. I was glad I did cause this is a really good action/drama flick, I think every lawyer whose taken a deal and let some piece of trash out into the world should be forced to watch this movie! Yeah, the end was a little weak, I was rooting for the bad guy to win, but still, if you like these kind of movies this ones a winner.
While this movie was entirely to short it was a masterpeice of dark animation, every scene in this movie simply bled Tim Burton. Dont listen to the nay-sayers, the storyline was a good one it was simply to abreiviated to seem as good as it should have been. If u like this kind of fare definatly see this movie. If your looking to see Toy Story go see something else.
Ok, me and my girlfriend had one thing on our minds when we went to see this movie... Megan Foxe's B@@BS, well we were dissapointed, NO B@@BS! If shes the only reason your going to see this movie stay home and google her. Other than that this was a cookie cutter, should been a direct to video, predictable teen comedy/horror affair that vaugly reminded me a Ginger Snaps meets Jawbreaker. In other words could have waited for the netflix resease... Megan, you need a new agent sweetheart!
Dont come to see this movie looking for another horror MASTERPEICE like Halloween. As a sequel this movie bombs, horrible plot and bad acting along with poor editing (come on my grandma walks faster than him) kills this as a truly great classic. However, they could have titled this movie Big Grunting Guys Kills Random People, a Rob Zombie film, I would have seen it and enjoyed it without expectations. The death scenes were murdurous artwork and the effects over the top realistic... KUDOS!
Peter Jackson has proved once again why he is one of my favorite directors. This movie had a very good mix of drama and action presented in an original way. The only real complaint was the way the movie was shot, almost all the scenes were done kind of like a home made movie (like someone was holding the camera) and the bumping and shaking started to give me a lil motion sickness about 2/3 of the way through, however this did lend to the grittieness and realistic feel of the film. The creature effects were absolutly astounding Ive never seen animation that was so lifelike or blended so well with the real characters in any other film Ive ever watched. I have to say I consider this an excellent peice of sci-fi artwork.
This movie was better than I thought it would be, my son greatly enjoyed it. Take it for what it is, an unpretentious excuse for funny little aliens fighting a bunch of kids with top notch special effects an without some long winded and uneeded background story. The acting was good and the action was better, I mean seriously, it was worth the price of admission just to see Dora Roberts busting out with some good ole street fighter moves! Yes, take your kids to see this!
