I thought the filming done in all hand-held, faux-home-video style was awful. If you want to see how hand-held camera can make a movie more exciting, see the Bourne Ultimatum. If you want to see how hand-held camera can make you motion sick, watch this.
The rest of the movie was ok. Not good, not bad, but ok. I can’t wait for the remake in twenty years (haha). The director was betting that the fake-documentary style would make it more exciting. It didn’t. I can’t believe that the Academy of SF and Horror picked this as their SF movie of the year. Surely I am Legend was better, the popcorn-movie Transformers certainly was.
