There are only a few cheesy special effects and the plot was well conceived.Jessica Striderhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13375221959854098665noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5625938726369573756.post-18019738905598064512010-11-02T21:39:40.520-04:002010-11-02T21:39:40.520-04:00With the exception of knowing that the special eff...With the exception of knowing that the special effects for this movie were rendered using Linux, the rest of the film was annoying and illogical. Essentially, an alien comes to Earth to say, "You're destroying Earth with your practices. That is bad. So I will destroy Earth with MY practices. That is good. Oh, I've changed my mind. Byeeeeee."<br /><br />Jacob was beyond annoying to the extent that I was fantasising different ways to rip him to shreds using methods that Klaatu shows in the movie. Jennifer Connelly was completely unconvincing as a scientist. I liked the revamped Gort. My verdict is that it was a complete waste of Linux run-time.Kaz Augustinhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01839835518368442832noreply@blogger.com
