Is the studio posting these comments?

Rating: 5/10 (9 August 2006)

I'm curious, because of a) the wild overpraising of this film, and b) the fact that some of the "off-the-cuff" comments showing up here are repeated word for word on other sites. I mean, sure, this movie has some good jump scenes, but the characters are murkily conceived and the monsters are absolutely ridiculous, resembling nothing so much as Chris Sarandon's old mid-change makeup from "Fright Night". If people are honestly serious and are not just shilling for the studio or for Mother England when they are praising this movie to the rafters, I think it proves three things: 1) Audiences value "jump scenes" more than honest scares. 2) No one is ever allowed to complain about ludicrous monsters in any movie ever. 3) Audiences don't care about plot details. If anyone can explain the line "we all lost something in that crash"... and remember, the line was "we ALL", not "she and I both"... please do so.
