I've seen a lot of bad movies, but this one is one of the worst ones I've ever seen. The only reason I watched the entire movie was to get to enjoy time with my daughter while she was home from college; otherwise I'd have shut it off after the first ten minutes. The special effects were mediocre. The acting was about as good as it could be given the story line - a credit to the actors; but still pretty bad. While my daughter said many of her friends thought it was a great movie, it seems like a case of 'who is going to tell the King that he has no clothes?'. I just can't understand the hype over this really bad movie.
