Super 8 (2011)

Another over hyped summer film. This time it's a spillberg/abrams venture. Like many of Spillberg's earlier films, this one revolved around children fighting aliens.

The story starts with a fat kid who wants to film movies. So right off the bat we get film makers trying to romantasize the industry when in actuallity its nothing but people trying to make as many 80's cartoons into live action as possible. Nice try but i'm not buying it!

Then the rest of the movie shifts focus and suddenly it's a disaster/horror/alien film. Could this movie possibly be anymore schizofrenic/??? Probably not! It draws on many of Spillbergs older films like ET, Jurassic Park, Clash Of The Titons, and War Of The Worlds. It was almost like watching a clip show!

There was also a love story between two 12 year olds. What the heck?? Who wants to think about 12 year olds being sex havers?? Not me. I had when the pedo agenda infultrates hollywood and ruins what could have been at least a decent action movie.

I wonder where the funding
for this movie came from???
Another thing that got distracting was how the director had a real problem operating his cameras. He was always putting his camera at the lights getting these annoying blinding flares that would cover sometimes 50% of the screen. What the heckk?? DDid he even look through the view finder and see what the shot looked like or did he just point and shoot while playing a game on his phone? What a lazy guy. You'd think after all the money hollywood gave him he'd at least make an effort to not film every studio light possible.

This movie has too many faults. Not only does it jump genres so fast you forget what movie you're watching but it's sickening child love story and light/camera issues make it impossible to watch. I give this "film" my lowest possible score, ** two stars
