The dumbest thing on earth

Rating: Null/10 (9 August 2004)

There are no words to describe how horrible this movie is, I'm talking Batman and Robin level bad. It tries to be hip and stylish, but its already dated. It tries to be macho and cool but it looks dumb. It tries to be "Aliens", but its monsters are nowhere near as scary (in fact, they look funny as hell trying to pop out of the water like they were in "Aliens" or when they run, they look like actors trying to run like otherworldly creatures...instead of actually looking like otherworldly creatures), and the team assembled is nowhere near as badass. I would recommend it only to twelve year old boys, or guys who are in the mood to watch a movie drunk and/or high, and don't care what's on the screen as long as *&$# blows up. David Goyer said he had no qualms about naming Blade Trinity despite the popularity of "The Matrix" (and its character "Trinity") because the sequels weren't any good. First off all they were flawed, but at least they're not on the level as this dreck. The action was better, more stylish , and those movies actually had something going on upstairs, working on multiple levels. These movie's had no one at home, they weren't playing with a full deck,etc...
Del Toro proudly claims to have an affinity for "comic books" but it just goes to show you that that in itself means jack*&$# unless you also, um , I dunno, happen to be talented. Here, Del Toro is probably at his weakest and most self indulgent.
David Goyer should not be allowed to write again until he gets his head out of his ass.
