A disappointment...

Rating: 1/10 (1 July 2005)

The ending was bad and the plot had holes. The acting was okay but it was all action. The special effects were good but it was so lacking in plot. Plus the "aliens" were so cliché looking and they added some very pointless and uninteresting characters. There was one character who seemed to be just pure filler. He added nothing to the plot and was nothing but an annoyance. I have to give Dakota Fanning credit, once again she did well in this movie. Tom Cruise gave his usual performance, he plays the same character in every movie, almost like Keanu Reeves, who seems to be stuck in an "excellent adventure". To put it simply, the whole movie reminded me of the second Matrix in that the entire thing was pointless action in which they attempted to cram the tiny bit of plot into a five minute scene. I guess you could say that I was very disappointed and I wouldn't recommend this movie.
