Can Anyone Believe This?

I had really really looked forward to this adventurous movie for quite some time. It has a wonderful trailer, engrossing commercial and a cool poster and none can resist. However, this movie has done none better than Uwe Boll's adapted video games movies.

And already the movie isn't being faithful to its source. Its rather boring in the starting and before you knew it, 2hours are gone and you felt as if you're cheated. With quite a huge budget this movie shouldn't have dissapoint so much. But the real problem lies on its unfaithful adaption.

And when you walked out of the theatre, will you not ask yourself why i watched it in the first place?

And in every magazine i read, this is what they said "THE NEXT LOTR!" well the result is ... ... FAR FROM IT.

So if you hate seeing your book adaption turns to some trash, i suggest you watch other shows opening this week. You can always rent this aweful film. This trash doesn't worth you to rush to the theatre to watch. Rent it or watch it on HBO in a year's time. Its worth that way.
