Wow, was that stupid......

Rating: 1/10 (7 July 2009)

Impressive effects! Great cast! Wow how stupid!!!
Carl Sagan (or was it Hawking who said it?) said he hated movies where aliens using more energy than people produce in a decade save a few humans when they have the obvious technology to save the whole thing. This is that movie!
Seriously how stupid was it? Kind of like the end of Dark City, a good potential gets ruined by stupidity and poor writing. The effects were pretty amazing and it was nice to see NYC get burned to the ground. NC did a good job as the caring father as well. I cant fault the cast at all. As with most of my reviews, and I understand that I only write them when mad, I fault the director and the writer for this drivel. Hopefully, unlike myself, you all will either pass on this or netflix it so you are spared the pain of realizing you spent good money on it....
