Didn't read any reviews before seeing the movie, but trinaboice's was the first listed when I looked afterwards and she is spot on. No long buildup before the action starts, the movie jumps right in. The monsters are big, mean, loud, and very realistic CGI, nothing like the ones you see on Comet channel or the other cheesy Sci-Fi TV channels.
Story is minimal, but that not why you'll see this movie, even without much of one it was still fun to see, and finally see on a big movie theater screen with the appropriate surround sound system.
You'll have to ignore some of the physics impossibilities, the first big monster "swims" thru the sand like the scorpion in the first Transformers movie. And apparently the old sail ships can move thru the sand too. And the Hummer mounted big machine guns don't seem to bother the monster much, but big!! knives do.
And trinaboice's comment about the Chi-knees joke in the movie, getting thousands of bashing comments, really?? Hardly an insult, people are just way too wimpy these days. People are looking for things to be offended by these days. Toughen up, it's a joke, get over it.
Enjoy the monsters and the movie!!!
