We were warned says the tagline.... how true...

Rating: 3/10 (22 January 2010)

I was warned by several people that this movie was all special effects and very little substance. And how true those warnings were.
Admittedly I did not see this on the big screen and I'm sure it probably works in the cinema better than on TV. Even so, I can still appreciate the special effects are excellent.
The storyline though is the usual end of the world fight for survival and this seems to be a subject that Hollywood thinks we cannot get enough of. But sorry Hollywood, I've had enough of it! Paper thin characters who I had no connection with and couldn't care less if they lived or died. Unbelievable last second escapes from death and a running time that is about 1 hour too long.
Disappointing.
