HaHahAhaHA!!!!


OMG was this bad. Made only worse by the fact that it was a fun idea that went horribly wrong. Who wrote this, a ten year old? The dialog is superfluous to a degree I've never seen before in a film done by professionals. Stating and restating and then re-restating, etc...the obvious until you wanted to jab your ear with a blunt object to offer some relief from the tedious words. I'm not sure how movies like this are made. I'm amazed that in this day and age, a substantial budget can be procured for a script this bad. I mean, didn't anyone read it prior to filming?
I could write a book on how terrible this was. For instance, the opening credit sequence. What were they trying to say? "Look how blue his eyes are" "Look again, there still really really blue." "Guess what? His eyes are still extremely blue."
If you really can't help yourself and feel compelled to watch this, fast forward liberally between the action sequences and skip the dialog. You'll thank me for it.

I think the plot is great. The writing is good. The acting is kind of patchy and the effects too, which is what holds it back.

All in all, I think they did great with what they have and I enjoyed it because it kind of stayed away from what's so boringly mainstream about many American movies.
