The Day The Earth Stood Still

Went for midnight movie with Yikmen, Ken Yaw and Kam Hin yesterday. When we actually arrived in the cinema, the tickets already sold out. Actually, the original plan was to watch Quarantine, but since Kam Hin already watched it, we have to find other movie. The Day The Earth Stood Still is perfect but it was fully booked. So, we were still wondering which movie to watch while queueing to buy the tickets. Suddenly, a woman approached us and asked whether we wanted to buy The Day The Earth Stood Still tickets because she bought the wrong ticket. I felt so lucky for having to watch the movie.

Anyway, the movie is good. Their speech is clear and short. The male leading actor, Keanu Reeves is cool and the female leading actor, Jennifer Connelly is pretty. The flow of movie is good. I rate this movie 4.5/5, not 5/5, just because they didn't really explain the ending, it is like self explanatory.

Keanu Reeves as Klaatu

I learned one thing from the movie. We human have been so convenient and so used to becoming the ruler of the Earth, we thought Earth represent human and human represent Earth. But this movie taught us that, Earth does not represent human, it is just a planet that we live in and it sustains our life. We human should not take Earth as granted and we should protect it as it sustain our life. I like one of the dialogue in the movie.

"If Earth dies, you all die. If you all die, the Earth lives." (Something like this.)
This statement shows that we are like a burden to Earth and we must not burden it anymore longer.

I like this movie very much, I think I will get a DVD for collectionm pirated though, haha
