Not for me

Rating: 1/10 (25 February 2008)

I took my 15 year old cousin to see this. He loved it. He reasoned that because the effects and the cinematography were good, the film must be good too. The cinematography wasn't actually that good and the CGI was too stylised. When the monster first started to rampage through the city they stole their ideas from the news coverage of 9/11. This was cheap in my opinion.
I couldn't care less if the characters lived or died and I was glad to see the end of the guy holding the camera. In fact, it wasn't until the brother died on the bridge that I realised these were two different people, so insipid was the relationship. Wasn't the girl from the video already at the party? Everyone looked the same and the film was too weak to tell what was going on.
Ho hum.
