MY REVIEW

 

 

I love science fiction movies so I couldn't wait to watch this movie.  I didn't find this the best movie I have seen and I think it could have used more suspense but the effects were pretty good .I thought that the movie leaves many questions unanswered and I did think this movie was predictable but it is still a good movie.

I am giving this movie 3 out of 5
