7 minutes of The Day the Earth Stood Still

Before the encore presentation of J.J. Abrams’ kick ass new show “Fringe” on Fox last night, an extended 7-minute preview for the upcoming remake of The Day the Earth Stood Still aired. Now I do want to say this before you get to carried away with watching it below. Keanue Reeves is a horrid actor. He is a one facet actor and every role he plays, he plays the same way. With that out of the way, the earth will not stand still for this horrible looking movie.

Check out the trailer below and let me know if you think Keanue is acting any different than in an other of his movies. I would go as far as saying he and Brenden Fraser are up for the worst actors of our time.

The Day the Earth Stood Still will open on December 12th of this year.

Man… you are so full os sh*t it is insane! You “warn” people to not like what they are watching because YOU think Keanu Reeves isn’t a good actor! Soooo… so called know it all blogger, you must be aware that it exists many folks out there that actually admire Keanu Reeves and think he is a fairly good actor who does quite good movies and might enjoy this movie very much! You, closed minded bitch, still babbling your “opinions”. But don’t try to make them appear as if they were unanimity. They are not!

I warned folks that the clip above was full of mediocre acting is all. Keanue Reeves or not, my opinion aside (which is the point of this website, to give opinions,) is not a good actor by any standards. If you like him that is great good for you. I think his acting along with his movies are all the same.

While I agree with AtomicPopcorn concerning Keanu’s acting (sad, happy, angry, depressed: all the faces are always the same), I don’t agree that this movie will be bad or mediocre. Keanu has made some really action packed movies that I’ve enjoyed. Like most actors not all of his movies have been winners, but then again if you’re a true Keanu fan that won’t really matter. As for “The Day the Earth Stood Still”, while I appreciate your warning neither I nor anyone else will really be able to tell just how good or bad this movie is until we’ve actually watched it.
Either way your opinion is truly appreciated. Thanks!!

Keanu is the wrong person for this role. There’s no doubt.

Also, John Cleese is in the cast. Wah?

The escape sequence could have been out of the X Files TV show.

‘Save The Environment’ message of the film is off-putting. I don’t want to be preached to at the movies.

I agree that the movie does not look THAT bad. I have also found Reeves acting quiet vacuous in all his films, but strangely his films have been enjoyable. Would, at least, catch this on DVD.

[...] While searching for a little bit of info on this movie, besides my first post on it here, I found this comment on the clip on yahoo’s page; “Johnny Mnemonic called he wants his suit back”. I could not agree more with this statement. While I will probably be invited to see a screening of this, I would not pay my hard earned cash for this film. Not even a DVD review of this. What do you all think of this? I believe you can find some Keanue fans at our last post of this movie. [...]
