Lazy story telling

Rating: 2/10 (12 February 2010)

Sure, the effects ARE excellent- but what a dreadful waste of effects. Surely, at some point, someone must have pointed out to the powers that be that the film contains nothing new.
If a film like this wins any awards for anything except special effects it is, surely, an indictment of the low value we put on original (or even interesting) work. The elements of a wonderful story COULD be there but it seems that the special effects budget was more important than the screen writing budget.
Dreadfully disappointed with the film and hope that others see it for "The Emperor's New Clothes" that it is. Come on Hollywood you can do far better than this!
