About 4 months, like every other move. Sorry for sounding like an arse, I really don't mean to.

So did I. Obviously I didn't expect it to touch the original.

I hope I will like it and then you won't be the only one. I won't spend the $$ to get in Blu but I'll pick it up as a cheap DVD

I thought the movie was a 3 out of 5 stars. I did not hate it and I did not love it. It was just OK. It had a weird ending that left me dissatisfied. I will Netflix the movie when it is released on BD just to determine if my opinion changes from watching it in the theater.

The only truly terrible part about it was Jaden Smith. Man, that kid was annoying.

Everything else was fine. It definitely wasn't close in quality to the original, but (aside from Jaden Smith) was an alright movie.

*******MINOR SPOILER********

I have to wonder though where was the President supposed to be. If the world was going to end in like a day why couldn't the guy get off his ass, come to DC and makes some of his own decisions on the situation? Instead he leaves it all to Kathy Bates who thinks she can deal with the global alien invasion all by her own (and not involve any other countries or outside opinions).

You people don't understand do you. It wasn't designed to be an action movie, not by a long shot. ANd personallity, it wasn't a dramatic movie. Klaatu, had it easy, he was a freakin alien. Come on people didn't you watch the movie.

what? i thought that kid was amazing...to be critical of a CHILD like this really shows somehting about you...i didn't know it was will smith's kid going into the movie, but i thought the kid did a great job and i came onto this site to see who he was...turns out it's will smith's kid, and now i know why he did a great job in the movie. sounds like someone is anti-will smith to me....a shame. that is the only reason someone could so roundly harsh on a child, when children, even the best, are not great actors

I would not see it again simply because there is nothing that draws me back. This is my perfect example of a rental.

I am really disappointed. I do not go to the theatre and was looking forward to purchasing this movie. I own the original in Blu was looking to have the re-make by it's side.

Very discouraging, very discouraging!
