On a five star scale rating I'd give this one a four.
Went and saw it last night with my wife - and though I think she got bored with it at times I actually thought it was quite good. Ironically she is the one who wanted to see it and I didn't really want to check it out.
It is a good "family" film and for a 3-D movie I was very impressed with the special effects. In fact if you aren't into "family" oriented movies I'd recommend seeing this one just for the visual effects alone. I must admit that upon seeing some previews for this movie that I wasn't expecting much by way of special effects - so to get pretty much a flawless flick in that regard was a pleasant surprise.
Branden Frasure is just a likable guy and I don't think I've seen anything that he's been in that I didn't enjoy. He does a good job in this movie - and his character seems to make a transition from an ordinary day guy to action hero right before your eyes.
The kid in the movie did a great job too. When he got scared - I actually believed it.
Good Stuff - check er' out.
