Robert P @Superbad Sep 27, 2026 This is a remake of a Popular Movie thus my 1 star rating... See more Robert S @bobcat1020 Sep 22, 2026 I hated this movie. The original was noted for being the first sci-fi movie where the aliens weren't the bad guys, and this version made them genocidal instead. Originally, Klaatu was here to warn us that while the universe didn't care what we did to each other here, we needed to change our warlike ways before we left the planet, because when we did, we would find that the universe was a peaceful place that would not tolerate our savagery nor hesitate to destroy us if we attempted to spread it. In this version the aliens ARE the bad guys who will exterminate humanity if we don't change our evil ways. I don't object to them making this movie (as bad as it is) but calling it a remake is an insult to the original. Not to mention that the title doesn't make sense because unlike the original the Earth never stands still. See more Frans B @FransB Sep 16, 2026 Not as bad as made out to be. Forget "original and remake" and some such. The movie has it's own intrigue and ambiance. Very capable cast all excels in character. Well written and directed. Very capable cast all excel in character. Great storyline and interesting communiqué. Fascinating and captivating. (Oh, and we {us earthlings} will most definitely NOT change 😜) See more Charles K @RT95048736 Sep 3, 2026 I would say that it's a bad film. And gets one star, because of the great cast it has, and I think Keanu and Jennifer and others are great. And jayden, but it's just such a weird film that really makes no sense, and really has no story that makes any sense at all. See more Sibby 5 @RT12152834 Aug 10, 2026 This movie was amazing! Great actors, storyline, and unexpected occurrences throughout the movie that I was unable to predict! Lots of action, special effects. Highly recommend! See more saeed T @RT37809958 May 31, 2026 I actually really liked this movie. Even though the special effects are very much a core part of the movie, I think Keanu Reaves fits the role of Klaatu very well, I also was touched by the part where the kid asks Klaatu to revive his father, it was a good use of the one thing that the kid saw. The guy in the flash chamber who didnt let the scientist leave the airlock but later was denied leaving the chamber himself, was also a pretty good scene and played a role in actually showing the hypocrisy of us humans. The child actor himself was very annoying though, he likely doesnt see helen as his mother or even someone important to him considering he barely makes a reaction as shes literally reeled away from him into a helicopter, I dont think he was fit for the role at all to be honest and he bought the movie down for me personally as he just infuriated me but the rest of the cast were pretty good. The movie also didnt make much sense at all but thats a story for later. See more Read all reviews
