Retitled - "The Day The Earth Got Stupid And Went to McDonalds"_____ Put bluntly, to compare this dreadful remake to the glowing, 1951 original would be like comparing a bucket of steaming vomit to, say, a garden of delicate violets, or something to that general effect._____ Do you suppose that the filmmakers of this stinkin' excuse for a remake were so bloody conceited as to believe that they were actually improving on the original?_____ Like, how many new levels of sheer stupidity can one movie stoop to before it falls flat on its face?_____ It totally killed me that this hypocritical, little flick actually preached that well-worn cliche which warns us all that "Violence is not the answer to our problems" - And, yet, all that this film was about was excessive violence (for it own sake?)._____ And, how fitting it was that an all-important meeting (of profound significance) which took place between Klaatu and a fellow alien-being was done over cokes in a crappy, old McDonalds._____ Doesn't actor Keanu Reeves know any other facial expressions besides that of a blank stare?_____ And actor Jaden Smith (Will Smith's no-talent son) was a despicable, snot-nosed suck who made my skin just crawl. -
