excellent effects, poor plot and acting

Rating: 5/10 (18 January 2010)

Was really looking forward to watching this film and the special 3d did not disappoint however the story was very poor. It became a long drawn out film with poor acting quality and a decidedly cheesy atmosphere. I really can not understand how it can be rated so high and also win so many different nominations. 3 hours is too long to sit in a cinema and watch a film of such a poor ridiculous storyline with a plot that you can read into from the start. It reminded me of a cross between jurassic park and men in black. Not the worst film i have ever seen but certainly not above average. Watch it for the special effects forget about it as a film.
