Modern, intelligent sci-fi; '2001' for the 'Saw' generation.

Good film! Keanu does well in Sci-Fi movies, and this one was no acception...pretty intense at times too. *****

User review rating: 0 December 19, 2008

Why knock Keanu's role? He was meant to be unemotional - that was the role people! So either way you must admit either he did a superb job (for his role) or the casting was right on (for the role). Aside from that, the movie represents a concept decades old. It is a remake of what sci-fi was all about back when. Relax, movie goers. I found it entertaining for what it was and was meant to be. If you want car chases, bodies beat to a pulp...this is not the movie for you. I liked it a lot!

I'd heard a lot of hype about this movie, so I was astonished to find myself searching for superlatives worthy of this remarkable updating of the Hollywood chestnut.

It's great!

Honestly one of the best movie ever !!!

User review rating: 0 December 18, 2008

The acting was original, though the special effects was amazing. Best movie I've ever seen in a long time. I should've waited for the dvd.

User review rating: 0 December 18, 2008

I thought the movie was alright nothing great but overall well done special effects and Keanu Reeves

User review rating: 0 December 17, 2008

In twenty years, no one will even remember the Matrix movies, but they'll still be talking about this splendid motion picture. 10/10

User review rating: 0 December 17, 2008

This was awful. What a total waste of time and money. Don't even rent the DVD. I can't believe this many people gave this 5 stars. Oh my God people, are you so easily entertained. Trust an adult; movies like this don't deserve your hard earned dollars. Just think about it, how many good movies has Keanu Reaves actually done.

Worst movie ever made by humans. Stay home.

Typical...but still very enjoyable!

Excellent,true to original.

User review rating: 0 December 16, 2008

Great movie and a super performance by Keanu Reeves. This movie is pretty true in concept to the original but there has to be some artistic licence otherwise this would simply have been a template of the original. All in all a very good representation of the original.

I am sick of this political correctness in movies. We do not need another "environmental "movie to scre everyboby about the end is coming. Give usa beak. Also Mr. Reeves acting is about as cheerful and lively as a corpse.

I like it when they remake old classics, because the special affects in the remake are way better! This is as good of a remake, as the War Of The Worlds was! 5 Stars!

User review rating: 0 December 16, 2008

We all have our tastes & everyone is intitled to their own opinion, so there's no need to bad mouth anyone for their review! I liked it a lot. I thought that it wouldn't be that good, but it was. Keanu was perfect for this role, because there wasn't too many lines for him! lol

User review rating: 0 December 16, 2008

I thought that this was a great version of the origional film. A must see...and it does say a lot about us "humans".

User review rating: 0 December 16, 2008

"better than all the matrix movies combined" - How could you say something like that. The first matrix movie was ground breaking in the majority of aspects of a movie. This is another dime a dozen movie. It was good I enjoyed it. But that statement someone said persuaded me to respond

User review rating: 0 December 15, 2008

Don't be surprised if it becomes a classic.

User review rating: 0 December 15, 2008

Jaw-dropping! Better than all the Matrix movies combined!!

User review rating: 0 December 15, 2008

Riveting sci-fi action! The effects blew me away!!!

User review rating: 0 December 15, 2008

I found this movie's storyline pretty boring. almost fall asleep for it. But the movie's graphic is good, which I give this movie a 4 stars rating!

User review rating: 0 December 15, 2008

Spectacular!

User review rating: 0 December 15, 2008

Brilliant! The most refreshingly original sci-fi movie since The Black Hole!

User review rating: 0 December 15, 2008

Not a good movie att all. Movies should be judged by their entertainment value or acting or story line. This movie had none of the above. You would figure Keanu perfect for this role ( cause he can only act one emotion anyway - dumb perplexity ). Save yourself the $10 and go rent the original, way better story and acting. I seriously don't understand anyone giving this movie a good rating, but then again there are plenty of people that think McDonalds is gormet food.

Good concept - bad portrayl .... at the end we were left with the thought of "thats it?" wouldn't pay to see it - probably wouldn't even rent it

User review rating: 0 December 15, 2008

What a crime! Studios are cashing in on remakes but unfortuneately they don't care about the end product. This one is one of the worst examples of profiteering.

User review rating: 0 December 15, 2008

wow, something different

User review rating: 0 December 14, 2008

We are all responsible for the whole. Really made me think...."What if?" Well worth seeing!

User review rating: 0 December 14, 2008

I wouldn't say it's the best of the best, but it was something new. Plus, I really like Jennifer Connelly, especially after Requiem For A Dream. Take a peak. If you don't like the story, at least enjoy the effects. 3 Stars.

I watched the original twice in the past week.It is a better movie by far.The new film is mediocre at best and though the "eco" message is important,there is surprisingly very little tension or excitement.I did like the new GORT until he turned into a horde of locusts.Wait for the DVD.

It should be titled “The Day the Movie Theatre Stood Still”. Stupid story line, badly written, feebly acted, propaganda ridden and politically driven crap fest with product placements at every turn. I’m surprised Al Gore didn’t make a cameo. Pure garbage and to think I help fund it with my 10 dollars and 90minutes of my life. I want a refund.

User review rating: 0 December 14, 2008

I loved this movie! It was interesting from the get go. Keanu was an amazing actor, as always and played Klatuu very well. The blank look he gave people was well done. The storyline well as the directing was excellent. The only character I didn't like was Will Smith's son. He was not needed in the movie. But overall it was fantasic and everyone should see it.

Where is the exit!!! I was waiting for someone to pull the fire alarm so that I would have to endure the pain of the movie.

User review rating: 0 December 14, 2008

There should be a "0 Star" Rating. This film would definately qualify. One of the worst and most boring I have seen in years.

User review rating: 0 December 13, 2008

one of the very best movies i have seen in a long time. well worth every cent.

User review rating: 0 December 13, 2008

No command for Keanu's acting skill but loves the excellent Morale behind the movie when Kathy Bates popped " You don't talk to UN , you talk to US"...Sarcastic.

User review rating: 0 December 13, 2008

Groundbreaking special effects team up with Mr. Speed and suddenly all is right with the world!!!

User review rating: 0 December 13, 2008

A solid sci-fi film...thoughtful and well crafted, but probably not exciting enough for audiences in there teens.

User review rating: 0 December 13, 2008

Good...Bored sometimes. Probably better on the BIG Screen, but should have waited for the Rental.

User review rating: 0 December 13, 2008

I think it had a very good story line. Knowing the US this is tipicle of their actions. I think the whole story is very believable

User review rating: 0 December 13, 2008

I want my money and 90 minutes of my life back. Maybe they put something in my popcorn because this snorefest had me checking my watch. A few special effects can't save this Christmas turkey. Long live the orginal.

An instant classic! 5/5
