The Day the Earth Stood Still

The Good:

Jennifer Connelly had more screen time than I'd thought she would.
Keanu Reeve was born to play wooden-like Klatu.
Gort was kind of cool, and ominous.

The Bad:

Script was bad and devoid of interesting sci-fi concepts that might have salvaged the ending, which wasn't all that enthalling. But not as bad as The Happening, but close.

The Ugly:

Jaden Smith's acting. Yeesh!
Lack of any substantial character development made the film feel very superficial and light-weight.

I give the film 1.75 stars, or a grade of C-.
