Something for the Summer....all that is required is a little imagination

Rating: 5/10 (19 June 2008)

I don't understand why this film is getting such a bad rep...oh yes, hang on, i do, it's because you have to be able to relate to movies to get it. I don't think that people got the fact that this is a 'End of mankind' movie with a little twist...we see everything from a very human perspective. There's no explosions, meteorites or high paced action, just well built tension and such an amazingly well told story. MNS knows the perfect pace and the perfect way to tell a story. So many people are expecting some sort of 'Twist', that they forget how to empathise with the characters and try to imagine what they would do if this really happened. i hear a lot of ranting about the dialogue, but i really found no problem with it, sure its a little ON THE NOSE, but people don't really speak in quotable lines of dialogue, i can't think of one real quotable line that anyone in real life has ever said. Im not complaining about most dialogue, I'm just saying that people should be more open to something a little bit different, and you are not one to be complaining if you rated D-WARS as a 8 out of 10 movie(yeah, I'm talking about you). If you want something a little bit different this summer, go and see the Happening.
