The acting was fine from the main roles, though there were a few example of horrendous acting at some stages, and the villain was pretty useless with all his recycled lines and general cookie cutter nature. The story, characters and dialogue were equal to that of Transformers. It really reminded me of a Michael Bay film in 3D.

I went to watch it. Boring, boring film.

It got pretty tedious towards the end.. I do love a good action movie, but this was just such a long movie and I started getting antsy. Plus my favorite parts were really just when Jake was in the forests, particularly in the night time (the scenery was SO beautiful and captivating!) and all the fight scenes towards the end (though cool) didn't keep my attention as much as the first half did.

Oh and I agree with Misawa, some of the acting was horrendous and very wooden at some parts (like when he told that one guy to stay behind, and he replied 'ok'.. my friends and I definitely laughed over that).

But overall I'm glad I spent the time and money seeing it. :)

Yeah, and I kind of liked how he was so keen to touch everything that was new to him in the forest, it was sort of a contrast to what I'd be like I think. I loved when he first ran across the camp thing into the forest as well, when he was just running and running :D.

Went and saw it last night, was a great film. It was an average storyline and I dontthink it would hold as much hype had it have not been in 3D

I actually didn't see it in either 3D or Imax (I saw just the plain old regular version since I'm cheap) and I thought it deserved the hype it's been getting.. though then again, I am a bit of a sci fi/fantasy dork, so don't mind me.

If you likes it in 2D then you'd like it more in 3D I think. Some parts were predictable like that bird thing. And the ending

It was predictable, but somehow still good. I think that says a lot.

Exactly. :)

I loved this film, When i found out it was nearly 3 hours long i began dreading how boring it would be, but not once did i get bored or loose interest in the film, but then again, I did watch it in 3D. The story has been used before, but so what? I think this film is one of the best out there and advise anyone to go watch it.
