worst acting ever-some clever ideas-creepy to think it could happen

Rating: 2/10 (15 June 2008)

Tonight i went to see it, i went in with an open mind, not sure what to expect for the "killing machine" to be(after seeing the theatrical trailer). All i ask is...how can a film go from OK to almost so bad you want to walk out, and this is only 10 minutes after it had started. i sat through it and my god i wish i didn't. It was clearly made by Americans because the first explanation for the things happening was "terrorists". The acting was terrible, even Mark Whalberg couldn't raise the film to an alright film-i even thought that at some points he seemed sarcastic in his acting, it felt like a comedy at points, which seems a bit stupid when they director is trying to joke about something as serious as pollution on earth. Not only was the acting and structure of the movie bad, the editing was horrible. At just on the hour mark of the film (when they are inside the life size doll house, Mark Whalberg's character sits down at the dinning table and there is a microphone visibly showing above his head, which made most of the cinema laugh with embarrassment of the film(know one seems to have mentioned this) . By the end of the film they seem so desperate to keep the film going that they add pointless minutes of nothingness. I would however like to add a thought on the message of the movie, which was that the Earth was naturally killing humans because of the pollution it was causing to the planet. And as it says in the film it was just in the North-East at the time, and it said before that the area had 15 nuclear power plants alone in that area. This film was a huge disappointment for and i would distress to everyone not to think about going to see it.
Pros:Well thought out, clever ideas, made you think that this event could actually happen-subtle messages to make people think about saving the environment) Cons:Bad editing,INCREDIBLY bad acting. unfortunately these 2 factors hugely overcome the film from on the brink on fantastic to damn right awful
This is my first review, so if you could give feedback it would be much appreciated.
