The Day the Earth Stood Still (2008)

I like the original and had already heard bad things about this before I went in. While I wouldn't say this is definitely a bad film, it's definitely not a good film. I don't know quite what audience they were going for but I don't think they hit any of them. The story doesn't make much sense, the action isn't that exciting, and the performances are unexceptional. The single thing that did catch my attention has been much talked about in sci-fi but I can't remember it on film (off the top of my head.)
