I just wasted an hour and a half of my life...

Rating: 1/10 (21 July 2016)

As ever, somehow a lot of these so-called blockbusters suck you in with clever trailers and good old-fashioned hype. This review section on this site starts off with rave reviews (surprise surprise) but as you read on you realize you are not alone in feeling duped!I Phew! Just wasted an hour and a half of my life...and to my utter dismay, I helped waste an hour and a half of my wife's life!!! My wife is not the biggest movie fan, (unlike me) and I convinced that this one would be worth watching! How will she ever trust me again with movie choices!!!! Really obvious script, almost childlike acting, really stupid plot, and the last 5 minutes rip off 'war of the Worlds type B movie sci-fi effects with this supposedly vulnerable girl turning into some kind of alien destroying specialist superhero was...well I'm now speechless. Do not think this has any relevance to the amazing Movie "Cloverfield". Because it hasn't. Full Stop!!!
