John Carter
Went and saw John Carter this afternoon with the wifey. I wasn't sure what to expect. The trailer made it look like a CGI filled action flick. I knew little about it, but thought it looked like it could be a good movie.
Here's the trailer:
Warning: Possible Spoilers ahead.
The movie is based on a series of books written in the early 1900's by Edgar Rice Burroughs. I haven't read these books, so I am not sure how close the movie stays with the original story line. The movie is about a man named John Carter. A captain in the Army in the late 1800's who is seeking gold. He finds a cave he's been searching for and stumbles across a medallion that transports him to Mars, or Barsoom, as called by the natives. There is a humanoid culture as well as a four armed alien race on the planet. Two different human cities are at war with each other, as well as a race of beings who manage the destruction of planets.
John Carter is captured by the alien race and soon wins their admiration.. He saves a princess from death, and ends up fighting in a war against the baddies. (Movie in a nutshell.) He also has a heightened sense of strength, agility, and can leap like no other.
While the movie is loaded with CGI, I enjoyed the storyline, and am now very interested in reading the original stories written 100 years ago. Hopefully I can find a copy somewhere and see how well it stacks up to the movie.
I would definitely recommend this movie. My wife even walked out of the theater saying she enjoyed that movie. I will for sure be picking it up on Blu-ray when the time comes.

I give it 8 out of 10 stars!
