Amazing graphics and action sequences and the overall pace of the movie make it worth the trip to the theater to see, despite the pedestrian story (and GCI love scene).
The scale of this movie is terrific, everything is BIG and along with the action, is overwhelming enough that I did not even have time to think about the ordinary/predictable script. I do not think that has happened to me before (at least for this long during the film).
Sigourney Weaver is good as well and the rest does not matter.
In short go see it.
I wish I had seen it at the IMAX theater, I think it would have been worth it.
btw the 3D was good but the overall look of the film was a bit dark, I wonder if anyone else sees that at their screening.
