Since this is the type of movie our critic would not reveiw, he invited a guest rater (Dave Kirk) to take a crack at writing a review for the film. He was accompanied by his 13 year old nephew, Ben and 18 year old son, David. We all enjoyed the movie on a variety of levels and the 3-D effects were pretty cool (without getting me sick to my stomach!)
I liked it more than I thought I would. I really enjoyed the main character, Sam Worthington and thought he brought a nice approach and some believability amidst the unbelievable graphics. Sigourney Weaver and the hard ass marine character were a bit cliched, the film is long, and the story line begged to make statements on everything from global warming to the Iraq invasion to the 9/11 attacks...Cameron took on a lot. Still, the film works and I found myself rooting for the Blue people.
