An honest review

Rating: 6/10 (28 March 2018)

So I gave this movie a 6/10. It actually deserves a 7/10
I took -1 off because of metoo & its obvious SJW connotations. (I could very easily have taken -2 because of it)
I do think this movie is good enough to be at the cinemas and not a direct to dvd (netflix) movie. That's for sure.
The acting is decent, the screenplay is bland, but okay.
It's by no means too intelligent for the average viewer, not in the slightest. However, it might be too boring.
It's on the level of "Unthinkable" with Samuel L. Jackson from 2010.
The storyline is very bland, you don't really care about the characters or their motivations. It's very well done for a sci-fi / mystic movie though. It has decent effects & explains everything in a way that so that it doesn't need to be explained.
The science of the movie is very documentary friendly, i.e it's not something you wouldnt know if you did not watch the occasional scientific documentary.
It's not even that of a *very* fast google search.
What bothers me mostly with the movie is how often I kept thinking how stupid the people running the main operation was. I'm not going to write spoilers.
But, there are clear actions the CDC would of done in order to do the mission way more safe.
There are also way more the military could of done to scout.
E.G drones.
I gave this a 6/10 because it was enjoyable, I like natalie portman & it has pretty colors.
Pretty much what you can expect from hollywood these days.
By no means an intelligent sitting for anyone, but it might be too boring.
