Don't know why the critics hate this so much!

Saw it in a nearly packed house yesterday and everyone certainly seemed to enjoy it!
I think half the fun of this movie is trying to figure out what's going on along with Ben Affleck's character. Once he figures that out, it's interesting to see what he does with each item. The movie is set in 2007 to make some of the technology maybe a little bit more believable, but you do have to suspend belief for some of the more implausible elements. Loved the character of Shorty. Wish he had been even more involved.
Not exactly an "edge or your seat" movie, but still intriguing enough putting the pieces together!
Definitely worth a matinee price! |
