*** This review may contain spoilers *** *Plot and ending analyzed* There should be a sign posted at the entrance to the theater where this movie is playing. It will read, "Leave your brain in the box". The movie is absolutely horrible. It felt as if the more I watched it, more and more of my brain cells were slowly dying. It is a complete ripoff of every American action movie. But it has no substance or style, and the whole thing is atrociously bad. Whoever wrote and directed this junk, should be locked up in a cell for eternity, and be forced to watch this. Each scene is composed solely of contrived action sequences that are ridiculously long and dumb. Add to the military group, two "tough as nails" women. Every modern action movie has that nowadays, and it is completely incredulous. And they also put in the obligatory "fat guy". He runs his mouth off pretty much the whole time, and taps on his portable computer to hook into dead systems that suddenly come to life again. And guess what? China saves the planet Earth. I was laughing so hard. I can't help but believe that in the end, this was nothing but nonsensical quasi-propaganda. But then again, maybe they actually thought that they had made a good movie. Save your hard earned money and buy some bubble gum instead. Or donate to a dead bird sanctuary.

Well, what a movie. Not exactly rife with deep philosophical under tones but if you check your brain in at the door and don't aim too high, you should not be overly disappointed. The story itself is pretty straight forward and is not what I would call taxing. Plants, mad scientists buggering with things they shouldn't be, end of the world, yada, yada, yada. The staging of the story was, well, nothing flash. The CQI and the set pieces were at best acceptable and at worse ordinary sometimes boarding on the laughable. For example, it was more than noticeable that as the characters were seen traversing the landscape between the high-rise buildings and the cars on the street in some scenes, the definition of the wider horizon of the landscape was decidedly flat in nature indicating an obvious green screen effect. It certainly screamed low budget. The other part of the staging of the story, the actors, is a different kettle of fish. Some of the acting was fine, some of the acting was more than a little melodramatic and some was just horrible. Case in point on this, the gentleman who played the rotund science tech "21" (and the comedy foil) simply put couldn't act. This criticism maybe harsh though as I watched the Chinese language version with subtitles (I cannot watch dubbed movies) and a lot of his lines obviously lost a lot in translation. Finally, the child. This child should win the Oscar for being the single most unwarranted and annoying child character in any movie since Dakota Fanning played Rachel Ferrier in Steven Spielberg's 2005 War of the Worlds. Certainly, as the film progresses and the child becomes progressive more annoying you hope that the plants do the viewers a favor and eat her and by the end of the movie, you are left wondering if the father saved the right person.... As the movie goes, quite the mixed bag but I have seen worse so maybe 6 out of 10.

RUN AWAY AS FAST AS YOU CAN. Start with an obese comedic tech wize, add a little girl and lots of more than ridiculous characters and situations and what you get is unwatchable. Imagery is straight out ofthe lowest level Japanese films from the age of Godzilla and others. Plot is a joke, characters are also just PC representations. If you enjoyed this excuse for a movie, please go back to your second grade class and refrain from leaving any movie reviews. Movies worth viewing does not include this amatuer attempt to cinema in any way. Pass and go straight to the exit when this "film" enters your radar.

I do NOT do "Sub-Titles" but since this was "dubbed" I gave it a shot, and glad I did! This was a VERY Different premise from your everyday Sci-fi film! Plants take over the World! Who'd of ever thunk it? LOL, PDG!!!! Take a peek!
