Advantages: Interesting story

Disadvantages: Keanu Reeves depressing acting

This is a decent show and probably very good if you are unfamilar with the orginal. The story follows a scientist who is taken at night to help the government tackle its newest dilemmae which is the arrival of a giant glowing sphere in central park. The Sphere turns out to be an alien spaceship complete with a large fire spluting robot called Gort.Keanu Reevses plays the part of an alien sent to communicate with humans in an attempt to save us for ourselves.When he is met with resistnace and fear from military leaders the fate of the planet and espcially humans seems all but doomed.

Overall this is a relatively good moive.The special effects and set are very good and add greatly to the overall acting.I personally think reeves is a very poor actor and do not think he should have been given this role as he did it no justice.This movie has a slighlty darker tone than the original and as a result was more violent in places.

Summary: Worth a watch for the effects and story
