The last Mimzy... I would say simply good idea, bad execution. This late trend of having a brother, a sister, and a so called plot/conflict/whatever is a bit crowded… After Theradiphia, revisiting this kind of story is a bit too soon… Even Zathura had more drama/conflict. The future needs something from us and so sends an emissary to get it… it’s a used plot leaving nothing to the what ifs you might expect in a flick that seemed to promise science fiction and a bit of originality… Seemed… (Sight)
All in all… The little girl excels at her acting, it was nice seeing the actress who was Legally Blonde’s best friend looking so good, it was nice seeing the eye candy of some mild special effects, it was nice seeing the actor from Green Mile… So much potential… ending up in a predictable story that is a nice tale to pass the time but could have gone a bit further. The idea of Alice through the looking glass has been reused too much in movies… Loved the Intel moment and the idea of the big eyed aliens being suits… So we should walk naked into the future? LOL Tibet and mandalas… Again, good idea, bad execution. Rent it and it will do good for a Sunday family afternoon.
