The Day the Earth Stood Still

Went out with hubby to see this movie which is rather late because we watched it a week later but I must say it didn’t matter when I watched it as there was really nothing very special about the movie to make me rush into the cinema when it was first shown.

Well, in fairness, the movie is OK. I might not give it a rating of 10 out of 10 but I think 7 will do. Although it has a very important message for earth dwellers but I think the way it was delivered is not impressive. It is too bold and shallow as if they are addressing primary kids. So it would be good for kids I think to teach them the lesson of taking care of the environment.

Oh by the way, I want to give a special mention to Jaden Smith. The first time time I saw him in the movie he did with his dad, The Pursuit of Happiness, he was still a baby and now he’s a big boy and I think he played his role very well.

One response so far
