Look upon and despair

Rating: 1/10 (18 January 2015)

I wasted my life watching this movie, and to augment my tumult, I attempted to find any shred of deeper meaning in this inane drivel. I haven't seen such a disappointing and deceivingly unambitious film perhaps since the release of Salt (2010) (of course other examples are far more egregious for ineptitude but I prefer pointing Salt out because it has similar qualities to this topic). Unfortunately, travesties such as Super 8 are reviewed positively by professionals for reasons that are beyond my comprehension.
Professional movie critics, I suppose, are meant to analyze several aspects of each presentation to find a "fair" or "rational" overall conclusion concerning the quality of a film. Apparently, the majority of these "qualified" persons conveniently overlooked the poor writing and cinematography, the inhuman acting, and the overall laxity in effort and emotion in production. This somewhat high-budget film resembled a ridiculous Michael Bay explosion-ridden flop at some parts with the rest looking like Tommy Wiseau's magical amount of nothingness splattered across the screen for the viewer to be in awe of folly.
I am being very ambiguous about the events in this horrific movie because it provokes excruciating pain in me to even recall such incidents. I implore that you stay away from this nonsensical rubbish.
