    Fortunately we only payed $10 then, which it was argubly worth.


    Overall it was a bit of a standard by the numbers Hollywood Winter atempted Blockbuster. It's main strength is that as a remake goes its not to far from the original.


    i knew it would be less then exciting then its trailer
    Do you mean this Trailer Roller?

    Bottom line is It's about as good as the first one.

    erm, watched it today...
    was excited at first but lost interest almost at the ending
    definitely only worth going to watch in the cinemas on Tuesday nights $10 or less
    NOT worth for $15

    is the kid Will Smith's son?

    well i saw this tonight

    with my new minty fresh girlfriend!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! woooooooooooooooooooo!!!!

    the film was crap!


    They spend the whole film running around or driving around, and the alien just kinda brings people he kills for fun back to life

    i swear Hellen was on the helicopter that exploded, then the next scene shes a-ok somewhere else.

    I kept pretending that the Presidents advisor was the mum from 'The Waterboy'

    my girl and i kept talking and ripping on the film, and everyone in the cinema agreed with us!

    I havent seen any of the versions at all, So is there mass death? If there is , might be worth watching on a saturday night- free tv that is, no way am I forking out on movies here. Only movie I ever paid for here was Transformers, and it was discounted at that - $10. Prolly show up in you tube anyways.
