The Dino Bots Just Dissapear
Transformed Into A Decent Film In The Series
I actually quite enjoyed this film in the series,
They have made a decent film with a lot of humour and grand scenes. Would of liked a bit more of the dino bots they just kind of go missing after a while

Overall I really enjoyed this movie I think it's better than the first one maybe not as well structured definitely more fun and action packed

They took some different story telling approaches with this movie and I appreciate it

This series is so action packed at times, it's like a movie or tv show.

I figured that Sara and Nikolai would be something like that--I've read too many books about werewolves and vampires and the like to not figure it out.

I could happily stay up and read the third book in the series right now but I don't currently have it.

Loved it
My honest opinion is this is the best pirate film collection I've watched. I've seen them all and could watch over and over. Am sure there are bad hits in each one but my love for these films over weighs that am afraid so if you want honesty then I can honestly great action packed film great actors and around greatness

Quick read
Great character development
Unique plot
Well written
Action-packed and exciting
I hadn't really given the Science Fiction genre a fair chance, so I decided that this would be a "starter" book. I figured since it was Book 1 of a series, I'd either love this book enough to get the next 2 or just abandon all hope for the genre.
I am happy to say that I found this book action-packed and exciting with a unique plot.
Well developed characters bring you into the story and make you actually care what happens to them.
The thought of humans having their minds transferred into AI robots (as well as other objects) is amazing and frightening all at the same time...especially when it is for the purpose of defeating a lab-created AI that has gone rogue with an objective to annihilate the human race!

It's been a while since I last read the last full-length Harry Dresden novel ([i]Changes[/i]), so I'd more or less forgot how action-packed they generally are.

Picking up months after *that* ending of the previous books, I've gotta say, you'd wonder how Jim Butcher is going to continue the series! The answer is rather unusual: how many other novels (or, for that matter, stories in general) can you think of where the main character/narrator are a ghost? Beetlejuice, maybe, but other than that ... ?

Anyhow, this is another action packed entry in the series, with Harry's shade - unable to touch any physical object, or to communicate with the vast majority of the world - is back in Chicago, primarily looking for the identity of his own killer (I must admit that I was actually blindsided a bit by that identity, when it was finally revealed).

Amusing and action packed.
Contains spoilers, click to show
Love this film for the stunts, the action and dare I say it even the storyline.
Its probably definitely more of a guy film if there is such a thing, but Morgan Freeman, Angelina Jolie sold the movie.
James mcavoy did a good job acting the role however his near constant girly screaming through a good portion of the first half really irritated me. I felt that was overdone somewhat.
I did love the revenge scene on his cheating girlfriend and best mate however.

Don't watch this is you have a daughter!
Really enjoyable film although a little slow at the start. It's definitely not an action packed take on the genre but that adds to its charm. Some cracking performances given and an interesting commentary on the world's political stance which was unexpected.
