    Keanu Reeves in a remake of the 50's classic. The movie is good and true to the original Keanu has moved forwards in his career and is now mega hot. A chance to see his early films

    This could have been a great expansion upon the original source material. By the time it starts to get interesting it all fizzled out. Worth a watch but stick to the original. This story could be done better in a future remake/ reimagining as the premise is just as relevant today as it was then and we'll always will be.

    Keanu does Keanu in a riveting performance. He's an alien confused with humanity's ways.

    While this remake updates a lot of the affects and such from the original it lacks any impact that made the original a classic.

    An interesting germ that didn't grow

    I have not seen this remake since it came out on DVD in 2009. I was worried I wouldn't like it as I did back then, and to my surprise, I didn't hate it. It has a lot of interesting ideas that validate and update this remake, but unfortunately, the weakest part of the movie is the script. The dialogue is way too focused on explaining everything at times and it has a few questionable scenes and character decisions. After listening to the commentary with the writer and realizing that this was made during the writer's strike it totally made sense. I really enjoyed Keanu Reeves as Klatu and Gort as Gort. Gort is such a cool improvement over the classic robot. Overall, I enjoyed and appreciated the many ideas they were playing with and introducing even though it didn't always follow through with them. This disc houses a lot of special features that are insightful, like the screenwriter talking about what problems they were having in crafting scenes and providing depth behind certain characters that come and go. Special Features: + Commentary by screenwriter David Scarpa (All the Money in the World) + Klaatu's Unseen Artifacts (picture-in-picture bonus view) + Build Your Own Gort + Deleted Scenes + Re-Imagining the Day documentary + Unleashing Gort (featurette) + Watching the Skies: In Search of Extraterrestrial Life (featurette) + The day the Earth was "Green" (featurette) +Still Galleries

    In some respects not as good as original, in other respects it is far superior. I always found the original to be a tad boring in parts, but this version is full of action and twists on the storyline that make it fresh viewing. Gort in the original was awesome back in the 50's but this newer Gort is more menacing and a lot larger. Keanu Reeves is great as Klaatu.

    I think that "The Day The Earth Stood Still" was one of the greatest classic films of all-time and it was also one of my favorite films of all-time. I also think that this film had a lot of enjoyable and entertaining action, mystery, suspense and drama including a really great cast, plot and storyline as well.

    It’s time to pull the plug on us Earthlings, but do we deserve a second chance? Great CGI simple story, we’re all gonna die...but wait....we can change! Yeah right! Really? I love this sci-fi remake of the old classic film, best seen in blu-ray.
