Wow, what a great movie. The 3D they used in this was just plain awesome.

All I can say is at the end of the movie I didn't feel like I had been there for 2 hours and 45 minutes...I wanted to see more of the world in the movie. It was not an overly difficult and complex plot, but it worked.

I think it was like dances with wolves in space....I know weird analogy but watch it and see...

Just a wonder to behold though, I kept thinking man Halo's world should be like this.

I agree, I saw it the previous weekend and it was a high quality film with a decent plot, though as indicated not complex to where you didn't know where it was leading. That being said, it just proves how you can make a NEW good quality movie, rather than just another remake, if you are willing to spend the money. With box office receipts from just the first two weeks I believe they are close to already recouping their 300 million in production costs. If HALO does ever end up being a movie, and they can do similar to Avatar they will probably out gross Avatar by half again. IMHO

was amazing but my stupid theater didn't have any over glasses 3D glasses. I also immediately thought Dances with Wolves in space when I watched it. For being 3 hours long I sure didn't feel like I was in the theater for 3 hours. It was very well paced.

It was beautiful alright but not much more. The plot was ridiculously predictable! Further more the human characters was a bit to stereotypical. We had the insane security guy, the evil coporation guy and the converting soldier

I thourgt it was to long.

Finally got to see this today. Very nice movie. The 3D effect gave me a bit of a headache by the end, but it was still really enjoyable.

Well military guy wasn't insane, he was doing his job, and was in his opinion betrayed. I think the world setting would also be great for a fantasy RPG. Hmmmm, floating mountains in Book III anyone? LOL

So if you're doing your job you can't be insane?

yes you can be insane and still be doing your job. However, the person in question didn't do anything that was all that *insane.* At least IMO.

A nice movie, but nothing really special. More like Pocahontas on steroids.
