The Day The Earth Stood Still

This movie was...
not terrible.
Suprising, I know.
Good
Big kick ass robot nanobot cloud.
All Star Cast
Bad
I want to punch Will Smith's son square in the mouth.
It's another liberal message "Don't ruin the environment, Puhleeeeeeeeeeaaaaaase?" movie. So conservatives, go fuck yourselves and watch An American Carol
The message is actually: "If you don't stop wrecking the earth, we are gonna come down there and bust some heads" in a New Yawk accent. So you might want to listen.
Bizarre Side Note
In the original film, the aliens shut off electricity for a day to teach the world a lesson. In the new film, the aliens set a loose a ravenous group of nanobots to destroy everything. And they murder Don Draper from Mad Men! ZOMFG! Keanu Reeves stops the nanobots from killing everybody but unwisely chooses to save Will Smith's whiny bitch of a daugh... I mean son. Not cool. Anyway, after he stops them. All electricity goes out on Earth and the humans lose their "privilege" to use it, which of course is far cooler. It doesn't really change the fact that nothing really happens though. When the makers of the film deviate from the original, the movie is better. They probably shouldn't have followed it so closely.
6/10
