The series of stinkingly bad Planet of the Apes movies were in the same genre. And now it is environmentalism? Also part of telling Westerners they are evil (for having invented technology), while non-Euros are good (for having not invented the wheel, in their great wisdom). I am only surprised Klaatu and Gort didn't come to save us from Anti-Semitism while they are at it. It's true, the movies are getting worse. But why search for the almost-good movie? Here is an earth-shattering suggestion: how about <i>not</i> watching movies? I read books. ("book" (n) - Google it.)

Must be that everyone is so mediocre that in order to rise to the top, you just have to deftly trick them and side step around their cruel traps. How can anyone make such a bad film?
