Very cool

Rating: 8/10 (11 July 2005)

I thought this movie was really cool. Just the look of this movie was awesome. I've wanted to see this movie ever since i first saw the trailer. To be honest though i almost hesitated to see it though because of Tom Cruise. I've never really like him much, or his movies, (he was pretty good in this one) and my friends didn't really want to see it. Anyways i decided to see it last week and wow. I just thought it was so cool. The sound was turned way up in the theater i was in and i jumped every time the machines would make that sound. It was so creepy cool. I loved that guy that played Robbie, Justin Chatwin, he was by far my favorite character in the movie. Dakota Fanning was amazing, I've enjoyed all her movies. Anyways the look of the movie rocked but as far as the plot goes it lacked a little. I mean you knew what was going to happen. If u thought about it you could pretty much predict who would or wouldn't die. And you never really learn anything. About the aliens or anything else for that matter. I thought the aliens kind of looked a little Idependence Day style too (just a little). Anyways I'll most likely be buying this movie on DVD and just for that look and sound and coolness of this movie i'd totally recommend it. I mean u don't really worry about there being no plot until you're out of the theater cause the movie totally sucks you in. So...in conclusion...see the movie...it rocked....Justin Chatwin, you're awesome.
