Cubussoli Very very predictable, including the post credit scene !!!
Stometer Save your money for something good and enjoyable
UnowPriceless hyped garbage
Deanna There are moments in this movie where the great movie it could've been peek out... They're fleeting, here, but they're worth savoring, and they happen often enough to make it worth your while.
invisibleunicornninja I actually liked the movie better than the book. That doesn't mean its any good. I guess there is some enjoyment to be had here, but overall this movie is pretty forgettable.
A_Different_Drummer And when I refer above to "all obstacles," I mean a script that comes across like one of the animals on the island (all of whom are simply adorable) bit a chunk out of it, no one noticed, and they filmed it anyway.Butler, Foster, and Breslin between them generate enough electricity to power Manhattan or, in this case, at least a small island. They keep you glued to the screen in spite of the nonsense.The story contains a brief scene where an overweight Australian boy, along with his parents, is briefly on the island. He not only sees Mim but tracks her down and makes a connection. Seconds later, he has to leave and disappears from the story.The audience feels much the same way by the time the curtain closes. But it was a fun ride while it lasted.
Matthew Jones I don't why this has been so negatively reviewed. I really enjoyed it and I have quite strict standards. Maybe it's because I care so much about the topic - wildlife conservation and adventure. While it obviously lacks the class and sophistication of other films which I have rated an 8, it's raw enjoyability grants it rarely given special bonus in my eyes. Crappy films get a 6, and this was not crappy, it was great fun. It probably scores highly to me as it's my fantasy to live in such a beautiful wild place with so many amazing animals and plants and fighting for their survival. It was just very stimulating and refreshingly devoid of violence (being a kids film, though I'm 25). It kept me entertained all the way through.
ebru-genc96 I liked the film when I saw in trailer.I have watched the film and it was really excited.I always like watching adventure movies and I like that movie too.The topic of this film is easy but it exciting.Island which in the film was very authentic.I think the part of movie which is taken under the water is the best of part of it.The actors and actress definitely choose well done.Gerard Butler has chanced the air movie.If you have got free times you can watch it.I hope this film will made second.
