The Day The Earth Stood Still


Release: 12.12.08
Director: Scott Derrickson

Keanu Reeves stars as the enigmatic Klaatu landing on Earth with an ultimatum for the human race. What could have been an interesting reinvention of the original is somewhat corrupted by the laughably obvious plot holes, Reeves’ dull and tedious eco-friendly alien and the lack of mystery behind the metal jolly green Klaatu brings along. There are some decent special effects this kind of big budget movie warrants, but little else.
