Display MoreJust watched this movie with a couple of friends,
and we all thought the same, it just doesn't fit.
The genres, did not sit well together.
We thought it very poor, no plot, too dark,
with almost the first hour, filmed in darkness making almost impossible
to make out what was going on.
Daniel Craig was indeed wooden, and Harrison Ford did his hopeful
career revival, no good at all!
The film also featured what appeared to be re-cycled aliens
from other movies, in other words nothing new!
The funniest moment to me, was when after the Apache had captured
our friends, and witnessed the aliens attacking,
they all sat around, with the chief utterering these words
'They come from a land far above the stars'.
So philosophical of the Native Americans of the time I thought,
when in reality they would probably have all scattered,
frightened to death, by the appearance of nasty monsters in their happy hunting grounds!"
With such a big budget, big name stars,
and producers like Steven Spielberg and Ron Howard
one could have expected better.
However, overall all we got was a silly film and a movie destined to be a flop
Thanks for the review Keith sounds like typical lighting on a "Ridley Scott" movie. Anyway I have decided to see new Ape movie. I might wait for DVD on Cowboys & Aliens.
