This movie was sooo dumb. The book wasn’t any better.
“Have you used a gun before, theoretical physicists?”
“no”
"here’s an assault rifle
[cue rambo scene]
This is one of those movies that didn’t fit with me in any way and I don’t understand how so many people enjoy it.
When this happens to me, I will often go hunting explanation videos. Often times I rewatch the movie with a new perspective and end up liking it a lot more. It’s also ok to not like it too.
really? i loved it. it’s been a while since i watched it but here are some of the things i liked (spoilers ahead)
spoiler
every single actor
the soundtrack
i thought the CGI flora and fauna were quite well done
the overall body horror
the found footage scene
the pool corpse
the zombie bear that screams HELP ME
the way each member of the squad melts down in a different but logically consistent way
i even liked the ending dance routine in the way it establishes that the alien is not inherently hostile
i overall just appreciate that the film had some ambition to try to do something weird and I think for the most part it was successful. and, not to nitpick your nitpick but i think they establish that everyone on the expedition had military experience
