So much possibility, and they ruined it

Rating: Null/10 (18 July 2010)

This movie could have been great. But honestly, it really really sucks.
This movie is incredibly predictable every step of the way. Its a pity to see such a badly written script said by these good actors in complete seriousness.
You know what this movie is? Its "people escaping bad stuff". That's all it is. There's no plot and character development whatsoever, and the movie is bogged down by nothing but more and more special fx.
Now, I love special fx. Heck. Transformers was pretty much nothing but special fx. But it did make an effort to give some kind of character development where this movie didn't make the least bit of effort.
It rolls from escape to escape to escape with not the least bit of an attempt made to connect to the emotions of the audience.
Bad movie. Bad bad movie. And not even B movie bad. B movies usually have a certain charm to them that makes them so bad, they're good. No, this is just plain old bad.
The only reason I didn't give this movie a one star is because the FX were cool.
