3D Special Effects... That's all!!
20 February 2004
I don't know the way to stress how very hard it is for me to sit through a movie that has so little to it, as far as story and plot, and only has "Special Effects"! At first I tried it with the 3D effect, but it lacked color, of which I felt was more important. Then I tried watching it in 2D (normal) and it still stank!

Too many U.S. producers are way hung up on the ability to use special effects that they focus all their attention on this one thing and loose the ability to understand the concept that a movie must first have a grip to it!

This is why I like foreign movies (subtitled or not). For one thing, I know that so much effort and cost to dub and/or subtitle a movie means that it must have been a hit in the origin country! I have suggested subtitled movies to people who say "No, watching the words at the bottom of the screen keeps me from seeing the movie." I have to ask this "What is the difference between having to read the subtitles below a good movie and WATCHING a piece of crap and trying to see through the special effects???????????!"!

I give it a 3. average for special effects (only to be fare to those who like movies for this reason only). As far as story and reason go, this movie is thumbs down! I will never watch it again!
