Exacty what I thought. But entertaining nonethess.

Roger Ebert's attitude was, this movie doesn't aspire to be anything more than an end-of-the-world disaster flick where lots of famous landmarks get destroyed, and that it used good special effects to achieve that goal, and based on that gave it a favorable review. Seems like a fair way of looking at it.

 

Emmerich is still a hack, though. laugh.gif

screw ebert. sounds like a stupid way to judge a movie. if someone's got the budget & a great technical staff then it's going to get a favorable review?! what garbage!

 

hack is the right word for emmerich.

He meant it more like it was eye candy done right. As opposed to, say, the last "Transformers" movie.

Thanks, I'm going to use that as desktop wallpaper.

 

However, if someone has a larger image that would be even better.

Saw the flick today.....

Meh......It wasn't "bad", but other than the visuals, it really was not "good" either. A bit too long as well.

I didn't say it was great, just good.

 

I like CGI films like this though, wish they made more!!

 

Take familiar things you are used to seeing, twist them, crash them, destroy them and flood them!! 653.gif

I did not dislike it..... And face it, it is orders of magnitude better than anything Michael Bay has put out.

I agree. I just rented the DVD last night and watched it, and that's pretty much how I felt about it too.
