Surprisingly well-done, fun to watch movie that doesn't take itself too seriously

Rating: 8/10 (20 November 2018)

I'll admit that when this movie first came out, I wasn't terribly interested. In fact, I never saw it when it was first released. It wasn't until many years later that I watched it on cable.
You know what? I was pleasantly surprised.
This isn't a movie to watch for scientific accuracy. This isn't a movie to watch to find deep meaning. This is a movie to sit down, grab your popcorn, and just have fun with it. The plot is straightforward and understandable, the performances are good, the effects are good. It's just a great summer movie romp.
It's not a movie that looks to take itself seriously. Just enjoy it for what it is.
