Makes you think, great topic makes up for terrible acting

Rating: 7/10 (27 December 2011)

Steven king writes about some of the best stuff. The main topic of this movie isn't necessarily about the crazy out of world creatures, it's the message questioning humanity. One of Steven kings great features is writing about some if life's mysteries, basically saying is humanity stable? And some what of, is there other forms of lifes. The movie it's self loses some points in my book for the terrible acting in this movie, by many of the supporting actors.if they had a stronger actor as main character too would be great, his screams at the end were just subpar. The beginning of the movie had me questioning a lot of things, acting, if this movie is even considerable, and basically everything they were doing. After that the movie gets progressively better. But it's the thought of the movie that really makes it a good watch, not what was actually happening or the acting. It questions how we would handle these kind of situation, who will we turn to, what will we do. Some twists and turns in the movie improve it greatly, with a sad ending, but it includes a common Steven king topic, religion. Religion plays a strong role and a lot of the scenes in the movie follow religion. It was a good watch and the twists, and fairly frequent scene changes and frequent deaths of characters kept me from eventually noticing to many flaws, overall decent movie, great idea! My favorite part is really Ollie in the movie, he is great<3
