We didn't lose

Rating: 10/10 (16 August 2004)

This was a great film, exciting, scary, entertaining and fun. As one of my kids said afterword, "that didn't seem like it was over 2 hours!". The movie was over, and we wanted more. My other kid said "that was the best movie I've seen yet". They're both ready to see it again, or see a possible sequel. Anderson did a good job with this, and should be proud of himself. The little touches that tied this movie into the Alien series were well done, including the use of "the knife trick". The only gripe I have is the tagline used in the commercials..."Whoever wins, we lose"...not at all accurate once you've seen the movie. Better would have been "If the serpent gets free, we all lose".
