2 of 5 stars. submitted by cullerth on July 11, 2018, 10:24pm The book was surprisingly great - it's just a hard story to realize on film. They should have left well enough alone.
Book > Movie submitted by majean on July 28, 2018, 2:40pm Disappointed they made the Asian character into a blonde white woman. Really, Hollywood?
Better than I was expecting submitted by lstorc on August 27, 2018, 6:14pm Given the trailers, I was expecting something more along the laughable lines of a b or c rated sci-fi film. I was happy that I was able to enjoy this without it being a mockery of some kind.
God-awful Waste of time crappy So-called sci fi for 4 year olds. UNwatchable. 100%. submitted by Tassos on February 6, 2019, 6:38am God-awful Waste of time crappy So-called sci fi for 4 year olds. UNwatchable. 100%. Who are the brain-dead morons who actually can tolerate this utter garbage? Pre-school?
