almost walked out

Rating: 2/10 (5 July 2011)

this is possibly the worst movie I have ever seen. loved the 1st 3 and figured 4 might be pushing it anyway because now they are working with the creatures mainly found in the 5th game. did not think for a second I would actually ask for my money back. There's so much slow mo...........like people have called me slow, but this movie had so much it felt 10min longer than it should have felt because of it. The 1st 3 movies had really good special effects, like the nemesis body suit was a great idea (minus the good guy thing at the end) and this 4th one kinda held up the same idea by putting in an actor for the executioner. But everything else was digital. hard to do yes (i do sfx myself) but not impossible and would been better if done practical.
in the end, 3d made the movie worse (pointless shots), slow motion killed the movie as far as I'm concerned and the fx were good but i think practical would been better.
oh and it looks as if the movie script was written between the 4th and 5th game and when the 5th game revealed Arcadia was a ship, and not a location, the movie was in and out of Alaska in less the 10min.
