Just got back from it
SUCKED. I had such high hopes for J.J. Abram's as he did a phenomenal job on Star Trek. This was a thinly veiled money making movie w/ hardly any concern for depth or plot.
I agree. But there were a couple good things. We paid extra to see it in a nice theater with kickass individual recliners. I kicked mine back and was in a THC daze. I'm serious. It was great!
The movie sucked, but the recliners and the movie's dolby surround sound recording quality, coupled with the great sound system in this particular theater were awesome. When something would crash into the ground, it sounded real! I was like, do it again.
I was hoping all thru the movie that they'd have some driving ass music every once in a while - when appropriate, of course. To me, the movie sounded too much like the original, with lots of trombones and brassy brass. I was lusting for some guitars - and some powerful tunes - and drums! Shoulda made better use of drums cause the movie lacked rhythm, imo. That theater sound system would've done the right music justice. Music can make a movie. But a decent plot and writing would help. lol
I'd like to see a movie of a live rock concert in that theater. I'd pick the am-ring Disturbed concert.
