'sum of all fears': a few reflections

Films/DVD Asylum

Movies from comedy to drama to your favorite Hollyweird Star.

i surely like the name of this movie.
this movie has to have the most preposterous (i don't know how to spell this word, i didn't expect to have an occasion to use it) story lines. no, i'm sure there are worse, but this is up there.
i hate movies that the whole beginning and middle is to build to a type of climax. the only one i liked like that was the one with the meteorite hitting the sea, and the subsequent tital wave.
but i walked out of jurrasic park ten minutes into the movie, and i've shut many a movie off that is this style. i don't know who invented that type of genre, but i'm not a fan of it. but saying it, perhaps there was a great movie from the past in this type of genre.
i guess the person who made this movie really fears bureaucracies. i know they're bad, but the movie is almost about a bureaucracy going out of control and only humanism can save the day.
and i don't know where hollywood will did up future 'heroes', but it neve seems to run out of them........ and believe me, it gets a little tiring after a while.
the movie has some charm. fairly nice cinematography, but the sub kicks off too often, overuse of the sub by this movie. it's got some patriotism. i would give it 2 out of 4 stars.
recommended only over watching non-educational tv. please hollywood, wake me up in twenty years!!
