Simply Awful

Rating: 3/10 (3 July 2008)

I went to the cinema with 2 of my friends excited to see this movie. One of my friends loved it, was intrigued from the beginning, oohed and aahed at the right places. But me and my other friend walked out of the cinema twice simply to get a break from it. How my friend enjoyed it, I have no idea! From the word "Go!" I was sitting bored and uninterested. These movies are usually my thing and I walked out of the cinema hugely disappointed. I am actually incredibly surprised how many good reviews this movie is getting on this website, because I found it simply awful. There was alright parts. The fighting scenes were good. And I admit, the special effects were fantastic but other than that I found the movie a complete letdown. I thought Liv Tyler did a good job. Gave the movie some life. But seriously, apart from Ms Tyler and the special effects, this movie would not even have been worth rating 1 star for. Please don't make the same mistake I did, thinking this would be a good movie. SAVE YOURSELF!
