Plantiana Yawn. Poorly Filmed Snooze Fest.
Intcatinfo A Masterpiece!
BallWubba Wow! What a bizarre film! Unfortunately the few funny moments there were were quite overshadowed by it's completely weird and random vibe throughout.
Curt Watching it is like watching the spectacle of a class clown at their best: you laugh at their jokes, instigate their defiance, and "ooooh" when they get in trouble.
gunit-87710 When I first watched it about 7 years I really liked it...watching it again I've obviously grown in my tastes...only watch if you enjoy sophomoric humor and films.
stratus_phere I knew it. I just knew it. When it showed a teenager with great powers, and he turns out to be a lousy coward, you know you're dealing with a really crappy movie.Once again, we have a movie where someone is bullied, his girlfriend is bullied, his friend is bullied, and he has this great power to defeat the bad guys. Yet he's acting like such a weak coward! No one that ridiculous deserves to have any powers at all. If you're so weak, so pathetic that you can't even beat the people who are so willing to beat you, then you deserve all the bad crap that happens to you.I'm so sick of movie makers coming up with crappy, weak shows featuring weakling, little baby characters with no strength, no backbone at all. I wish they'd make movies about tough guys, for tough guys, like they used to. Remember the days of Conan the Barbarian? Or Indiana Jones? For crying out loud, what has happened to cinema that we now celebrate the weak, the useless, the cowards?
mburzynski-80246 This is a great film. And finally out on netflix. I saw it back in 2011 and it has a nice original storyline. Now in 2018 if the scifi movie isnt marvel its most likely a remake of something from the 1980s. This movie has great special effects and sets up nicely for a sequel. Its been seven years now. not sure if we ever going to see one.
Kirpianuscus and Timothy Olyphant. a film who has the save sin and virtue - it is far to be original. it is a virtue because it is not fair to criticize it for the use of a lot of clichés who are basic ingredients in the films for teenagers. it is its basic sin because the expectation of public must be respected. but "I am number five" is the same mix of ambiguous bad boys, noble mission, love story, the super hero in high school and his dramatic love story. sounds well known, did it? so, all is reduced at the new meet with Pettyfer and Olyphant, few special effects, the secret and the run. is it enough ? maybe, because, after the first impressions, it remains a decent Sci. Fi/ youth literature adaptation .
