I like the storyline of this show,it attract me so much
Brilliant and touching
Let me be very fair here, this is not the best movie in my opinion. But, this movie is fun, it has purpose and is very enjoyable to watch.
Mostly, the movie is committed to the value of a good time.
This movie does justice to Dean Koontz's book. Anton Yelchin's acting was great, really spot on.
I gave this film the old 30 minute try. After 30 minutes, I didn't feel like watching anymore so I changed the channel. But RIP to the lead, he made a good Scotty in the Star Trek films.
This movie was fantastic! The main character is easily loved, while the movie focusses on the gifts he has and his mission. There is not too much comedy/humor but all characters in the film are very much enjoyable. The horror part of the movie is nicely balanced; the movie features loads of short parts of thrill. The gift is something that will stick to my mind for quite a while and keeps me thinking... as well as the final scene.
I haven't read the book, but I did read a different novel by Dean Koontz recently which is what got it in my head to watch this movie. I'm regretting that I didn't look any deeper than the name and the rating. This is not a nearly 7 star movie. It's a B movie with a couple of good actors in it.I'll start with the good. Anton Yelchin. Without him this movie would be utterly useless. He plays Odd with the perfect mix of humor, strength and self deprecation. Willem Dafoe brings some credibility to his role so we at least have 2 actors who can act, but doesn't do much more than that. The special effects are cool in some places.The bad: everything else. From poor acting performances to showing skin for no reason (do we really need a slow motion running scene?) to unconvincing dialog. Maybe if I was a teenager or liked B movies. But no, neither of those is the case. Skip this one.
