Visually stunning..storyline fell kinda flat

Rating: 5/10 (11 August 2013)

This movie had good actors, good acting, great special affects, and stunning landscapes, but it just didn't do it for me. The plot was slow to take off and I found the plot rather boring. I loved everything about this movie except the storyline and I left the theatres scratching my head as to why I didn't like this movie.
I never liked District 9 and this movie has the same kind of style to it, so maybe that's why I didn't like it. Matt Damon as a sci fi hero...I found that very interesting and was hoping I would like it, but I think Matt should stick to the genres that he has done in the past. He's great at drama, great at spy/military/soldier type movies. I like him in a lot of the movies he does, and honestly, his acting was great in this movie. I just didn't like the story. And Matt looks weird with a shaved head.(girls perspective) I think that a lot of hard core sci fi fans will like this movie and I'm recommending it would be worth going to see, just to check it out and see if you like it. If you hated District 9, I probably wouldn't go see this movie as it has a very similar feel to it.
I gave this movie a rating of 5 because I hated the story line.
