7/10
Great entertainment

It is another wonderful piece of scifi movie!

First of all, it has a very exciting plot! The plot is very interesting, the first 20 minutes would want you to stay and finish it, the story starts with with Damian, Ben Kingsley, that gives a good start, although the scene with him did not gave out much of a story, it works very fine to start. Then the story and the plot at the near half becomes simplistic, that excitement drop, but it seems to be the general thought, thats why it becomes very common. On the way to the end of the story it becomes brilliant in a way , the perspective of the protagonist becomes conscious, this starts the another sub-plots, another story to deal with but this gave the story more color. Then again, as the story ends, it gave out a very sweet desert which thirsts me. Lastly, the ending has one of the most wonderful and beautiful scene ever in a sci fi or any movie which is nice ending.

Secondly, about the actors, they all did perfectly for their roles, Ryan Reynolds is very perfectly fits the Role as young Damian, he portrays the exact person you would be on the situation, anna, the daughter, portrays a very charming daughter, suits the expression from a child who has disease. They all fits and act perfectly on every situation, but a talking without looking a speck on their eyes.

Lastly, the directing was obviously mediocre, the movie was good, the story, the plot, the actors, its just not a winning movie for me, there's something missing, maybe it focused too much story, which did not give emphasis to the core of it. The movie is compared to other well knowned sci fi movie is better but it is on the same level, it did not give a best of the plot, best of the wonderful idea.

For the conclusion, it is a very entertaining Sci Fi movie everyone would like, very much, but on the other side it is no different to other SciFi movies, from the whole.
