Supposedly, this is a sequel to “Butterfly Effect” with Ashton Kutcher; in reality, it is more of an attempt to remake BE-1, for whatever reason. Kutcher isn’t there, in fact there is no connection with the previous story / characters. There are no blackouts, either. A totally different guy …

As far as wasted opportunities go, this film takes the cake. It isn’t so much a remake of the original film as it is homage to it as only the very basic plot elements from the original were retained and woven into an unnecessarily reworked plot that falls flat …

I have a very high expectations on the movie since I am one of the X-Men Fanatic, though I was a bit disappointed when I found out that the director of X-men 1 and 2 is not directing 3 because he has some other engagement. I have been expecting …

I watched Bridge to Terabithia ready to get bored and be repulsed with the little knowledge I have about the film. Thanks to false advertising (equivalent to the preview showing the CGI effects), my impression on the film beforehand was that it was going to be another-kiddy-fantasy knock-off.
Still, I …
