The Day the Earth Stood Still ($2-)
Morgan - this one is for you. My total review is as follows:
IT'S SHIT!
I would write more but it just doesn't deserve it - pure pooh on film. JB Hifi has the original for sale for $10- in a collectors set - buy this - it's cheaper than watching this in the cinema and from what I hear, the original is excellent. Sam (who I watched it with) slept through the film, and I sat with my jaw dropped for 90min - seriously it's that bad and this time Keanu is not to blame - he suits the character but the director should be lobotimized. It gets a $2- score because Keanu is ok and the robot looks cool. But mini Will Smith needed direction - kids can't pull magic from their soul unless told what to do and put in the frame of character. Kathy Bates is poorly cast, Jennifer Connoly is beautiful but when the script is embarrassing and the director is just stupid then things go bad bad bad.
Crap - I said way too much - the above wasn't my review - just comments
but Morgan, The Happening is heaps better than this - maybe you can find a humorous sub-plot in this one.

Unfortunately, I watched both of these films and I must confess that, "Both of these two movies were S**K!"

Have not seen BB or Yes Man yet - been to ill to go to the movies. Boo me. I look forward to your scathing comments. Hehe
Wilson - I think The Day the Earth Stopped was a TV movie - where lots of robots come to the planet. I believe it could have been better than this!!
Thanks for the comments guys and have a great day!
