Disappointed. The Happening was Better.

Rating: 3/10 (23 December 2018)

As others have said, it really is rather unbelievable that anyone, burdened with two children could achieve what they did blindfolded. Seriously. And ignoring that, at least with The Happening you had the idea Nature was getting it's revenge on Mankind. In this film, we haven't a clue who the big bad is or their motive. Aliens? God? Where did they come from? What do they want? Okay, do we? I admit I fast forwarded a little, out of despair. I have not read the book this film is based on, so there's that. But there is nothing new here, and what is here is all too familiar. People gathered together during a something apocalypse who mostly die. And the people were stupid. And the acting was all fairly good. The children were good. Sandra was good. Good acting however, can't save this movie. I also had a problem with the flashback/forwards. It helped break whatever suspense there might have been. I really like Sandra Bullock. I really didn't care for this movie and that makes me sad.
