Stupid and boring beyond belief

Rating: 1/10 (28 March 2007)

Everything's awful about this film: writing, acting, special effects, directing. For instance, you would think that the original story would be interesting enough on its own; what need was there to do something so stupid as adding RCS and trolls? And in this age where special effects can be so sophisticated, why have a film that just looks like a video game? It's one of those films where you feel faintly embarrassed for the actors who have to utter such idiotic lines, and whose name will be forever associated with such a stinker. I suppose if you're a spotty 15 years old addicted to video games you'll probably love it (and that, I suspect, explains a lot of the high ratings) but this is arguably as far from decent cinema as you can get. Learn from my mistake, and save your money...
