Film School Rejects: The Day the Box Office Stood Still

    Yeah wth! I was going to go see Gran Torino, got to cause its Clints likely last acting role, and its playing absolutely NO WHERE by me... And the public's getting smart, remakes+crappy looking CGI+disaster film+Keanu Reeves=a waste of money in hard economic times. Its simple mathematics.

    I watched The Day The Earth Stood Still on Imax, and actually thought it was pretty fun. It had it's fair share of problems, it wasn't a complete waste of time. Imax is big and makes everything look nice, Keanu Reeve's stonefacedness suits this role and I haven't watched the original so I liked most of the story.

    That said I find something to like in almost every movie I watch so that doesn't say much for me as a critic...

    I am disappointed that TDTESS didn't do as well as predicted. It isn't that bad.

    I don't even plan on seeing this movie when it's FREE on TV.

    Please... Keanu Reeves?

    I'm glad the pseudo-critics on this blog and the critics on rottentomato's are crapping on this movie because I went in expecting very little and came out experiencing a really well done movie. were there things that could have been done better? of course! as with any film. Make your own opinions folks.
