Movie Synopsis - I Am Number Four
Movie Trailer - I Am Number Four
I saw the trailer of I Am Number Four for quite some time already but due to the busy schedule at work these days, I couldn't find time to go catch the movie. Even if I had the time, I would rather spend staying at home resting. I did a little reading on the plot and story, I find it quite interesting and I expect there will be a lot of sci-fi fighting scene filled with visual effects. I've got some very interesting comments on the movie.
When I first saw the trailer, I thought it would just be another one of those teen flick where all the actors are good looking, well built with 6 packs abs and all the actresses will be pretty, sexy and blonde. True enough, when I watch the movie, it was exactly as I thought.
The movie was listed to be 114 mins. The best part of the movie was only at the last 10 mins. I wasted 104 mins of my precious time. When the movie reach the hour mark, Jas whispered to me and say, "I'm very sure there will be part 2." At about 80 mins, I saw 3 people coming in with popcorns. I bet someone must have tipped them to only watch the last 30 mins of the movie and you'll get the idea of the whole movie.
I was so disappointed with Michael Bay and Steven Spielberg. Both of them had a part in producing this movie. It is a true disappointment. The movie was very draggy and without substance in the first 100 min of the movie. It didn't explain who are the Loriens, why are these 9 child aliens so special that they were so well protected, why the Magadorians wanted to kill the 9 of them so badly, so many more unanswered questions. I was so frustrated when I came out of the cinema.
The reason I wanted to watch this movie is because I thought the movie will answer me all the questions I had after reading the synopsis and watching the trailer but when I stepped out of the cinema, all the questions were still there. Why must they be killed in sequence? Why did they only realise they had to find each other at the end of the movie? Oh gosh...as I'm typing this, more questions came out.
Overall, it was a boring movie. Don't watch it even if you do not have any choices. If you really wanna watch it, just go for the last 30 mins. You'll get the whole idea of the movie. Don't bother watching part 2 because part 2 is usually worst than part 1.
Rating 0.5/5. A true disappointment.
