You’d have thought that Jennifer Connelly would have learned a lesson from her role The Hulk a few years back, but apparently not. Keanu Reeves, on the other hand, tends to land roles that are brilliant or downright horrible. The latter was again the case in The Day The Earth Stood Still.
Remakes are rarely better than the originals, but to make a movie this bad must have been a chore. Being a big fan of science fiction, I had high hopes for this film, but after renting it, there is a small part of my life that I would really like back.
Yes, the special effects were pretty good and the altered storyline was okay, but there were so many issues with the plot that 90 minutes couldn’t do justice to. Nevertheless, it was good to see the earth survive, but many more of these films and these actors’ careers may not!
