Did not Know what was going on

Rating: 5/10 (19 November 2011)

I wasn't really bothered by the religious overtones of the movie and really can't understand why anyone is getting upset. If you're religious, you get a religious message, if you're not it's just fiction. If anyone is stupid enough to allow something from Hollywood to shape their beliefs then there isn't much that can save them, or it seems they join Scientology.
What does knock a lot of stars off for me is the number of inconsistencies and complete and utter lack of logic even as sci fi. It just does not make sense. If a planet was about to be destroyed, would an advanced civilisation save a few, young, select children by warning them a generation too soon via cryptic messages and giving them visions of Armageddon that would send a fully grown adult into a psychiatric ward?
There are a string of such inconsistencies that leave you more occupied picking holes in the story line.
If you put to the back of your mind the fact that the movie makes absolutely no sense whatsoever, it is still worth watching, even if just for one pretty spectacular scene.
You're still just left disappointed with the feeling that it could have been a great sci-fi movie.
