Very enjoyable!

Rating: 7/10 (14 June 2012)

To start, I enjoyed the movie, though I regrettably missed watching the film in theaters. I do own a copy of it, that I love to re-watch with my family on occasion! There is an excellent story that really digs into the nearly complete disregard for life that especially Corporations present when they're impeded from obtaining their goals, irrespective of the highly questionable value of the goals they cling to.
Having said that, I did have some minor issues with the film:
1) The lighting of the forest at night, while spectacular for contrast and a wide range of very bright colors, it's my opinion that the lighting was too brilliant and overused in this film.
2) There is no explanation as to the purpose of the resource they're trying to extract even in the extended edition. I feel that this is important to the story in explaining why the characters are risking life and limb. I sincerely hope this is not a spoiler for anyone, however I'll tag this review as containing spoilers just to be safe.
Outside of those issues it was an excellent film, and the cast is outstanding! I would certainly recommend this film for anyone 13yo+, and I'm very appreciative of being able to express my opinion here!
