Not worth the theater price

Rating: Null/10 (19 January 2008)

It had some good camera shots, and Hunt was funny. That was about all that was good about it.
The movie was full of clichés and plot holes.
1)Wow they must have the worlds best camera that has unlimited battery life. 2)The little things were zergling rip offs, and somehow 4 tired 20+ yr olds are able to fend off a group of them in a completely dark tunnel? Are you kidding me? They must be the weakest monsters ever. Not to mention every single person gets knocked over and jumped on, but somehow only one person manages to get bitten. 3)The military presence was unrealistic. If a giant monster attacked New York it would be nothing but non stop barrages from tanks, jets, bombers, everything constantly over and over. There would be soooo many more troops. 4)Would 99% of ppl go back into the heart of a city under a monster attack? I think not. 5)The girl had a metal pole nailing her down to the floor through her shoulder for multiple hours and not only doesn't die from blood loss, but after they forcefully rip her off the pole she is than able walk down 50+flights of stairs and run though streets apparently not hurt anymore. 6)The fact that no one said "Zomg its a giant monster" on the news blew my mind 7)The monster was fleshy and boney and it made no sense why it could take all those blasts. No thick hide, armor look, scales etc. 8)When they are flying away in the helicopter the pilot is so stupid that instead of flying away from the monster he decides to fly perpendicular to it as its being bombed. 9)The monster after getting blown to crap and being hurt then decides to jump hundreds of feet high and miles in distance at a helicopter and bite it for no apparent reason. Even though in every other shot it is slow and can't defend itself from aerial attacks. 10)Of course the 3 kids manage to survive a helicopter crash from hundreds of feet in the air, almost entirely UNARMED, yet the military pilots die. 11)They cut out 20mins of the movie explaining what the monster is and what the title means. 12) And my personal favorite, a Monster thats the size of skyscrapers somehow manages to sneak up on someone.
How is that even possible?
Not to mention in the final shot it somehow shrunk in size.
Go see the Host. It's a million times better.
