Excellent movie - I think know why it "didn't work"

Rating: 9/10 (19 October 2012)

I can not understand all the bad ratings.
This movie is outstanding, and definitely worth watching. Anyone in search for a meaning or a bigger background / deeper story should just dismiss this thoughts and just enjoy without prejudice.
I saw this movie on a DVD evening after "Marvels Avengers", and though I liked Avengers a lot, when you have the chance to see this movies one after another, you immediately realize that this movie plays in a different - higher - league and is something very very special.

The screenplay is marvelous and I deeply regret not having seen it on a big screen.. there are some scenes which have a beauty comparable to avatar or even above. The pictures themselves are worth buying this movie

Special effects excellent but never "too much", very realistic. - Great sound

The movie gives you "the thrill", many scenes really produce high tension and strange feelings.... And here is my opinion why the movie didn't work: Maybe I am too old, but I never could feel empathy for the actors. the reason for that is that although they are excellent actors, the movie never gives you a chance to sympathize with one. Maybe too many actors, maybe too cool, I don't know but none of the characters gave me a reason why I should like them and care about what is going to happen to them. ..(I think most movies work that way)

Usually, in 90% of Hollywood movies you know what is going to happen next and at the end- In this movie you have no clue, until the very end. I loved this.

the script might seem a bit lame overall, but on the other side you can find many symbols and references in this movie, many new thoughts and also this feeling something absurd is happening but it is all useless what they are doing...

All in All an excellent movie, if you like SF or Thrillers, Horror, it is a must.
