Dunno Why This Movie Became Such A Hit

Rating: 5/10 (17 September 2008)

To be very frank, I really don't think this is such a wonderful movie after all.
The film takes off well, however it loses its direction in the middle, and completely messes up in the end! This is exactly what happens when one has a great plot in hand and does a sloppy execution of it.
However, Will Smith is definitely the saving grace for the movie. Great performance from him as always.
Agreed that the movie has a chilling storyline, but there are far too many flaws and mistakes around. In fact even a single watch is sufficient to spot some of them! And the worst part of it is after making such a great start to the movie, the director just seems to lose it all thereafter. He fumbles with the ending and what you get is a really irritating termination of what could have been one of the best science-fiction movies.
