A visually stunning film, Story-wise it is OK

Rating: 8/10 (17 May 2014)

OK, to start off I just want to start with the hype this film I felt had. I went to the cinema today expecting a lot more than what the trailers gave, and although the trailers were good I don't think the film was anything that is ground breaking. The CGI is brilliant, I feel the movie was definitely more focused around the visual effects and sound, which is true but I felt there was something that was missing. If you go to see this with the idea like I had that it is going to be great you will feel slightly disappointed. There were quite a few very good scenes in the movie that had you on the edge of your seat but overall I feel that after a hour this became slightly dull; I also thing it wasn't put together as well as it could have been but needless to say it is a very good movie, it just needed a bit of tidying up. The acting isn't too bad, for example everyone's favourite Walter White from Breaking Bad did a good job to try and put across how serious it actually was, but the other characters aren't so great.
Overall the film is entertaining and a good watch, if you are into very well made special effect movies and monster movies then this is for you.
