I feel like I am on a different planet due to the ratings on this site. I feel that a lot of reviewers are really confused, that they really could not put a description of what the whole movie was about but they pinned it on two factors 1. the special effects (and is why i gave it a three rating.) I would have given a more fair review on the effects if the plot and story was better. But I am being unfair because in my opinion the story was pretty bad. 2. most of the ratings are based on the oh ah moment near the end during the communication thing between dad and daughter. That was just not enough in my opinion. All the descriptions the director tried to explain during the movie failed failed and then failed again. If they would have shortened the movie to 1.5 hours, It would not have been a little less disappointing. But this director ended up making it so long because it appears, he was pretty confused himself. I really need to contact Scotty to beam me out of this planet if this movie is really going to get an 8.9 rating. SCOTTY! PLEASE!
