The dumbest scene in the movie (though it's hard, there were so many) was the "youtube" clip of the zoo guy letting lions rip his arms off. So lame.

This was a horrible movie. Just plain horrible.

The subplot love interested was about a predictable as it gets. Can't believe I wasted money on this PoS.

I didn't like this movie at all. I have always liked M. Night's movies. Signs is my favorite. I was so bored at this movie that I actually didn't mind the annoying people talking during the movie. Their conversation was more interesting!
I thought for it being rated R it would have more gore in it, but it didn't.

I just got back from the theater.

It sucked so bad.

I almost walked out half way through.

I went into the movie expecting it to be a really campy, cheezy, B-Movie.

With that expectation, I thought it was pretty good. I wouldn't pay to see it again, but it was an amusing waste of time. Mark Wahlberg, whether he intended to be cheezy or not, was awesomely cheezy in this movie.

I liked the Concept behind the movie, although it was extrapolated beyond believable. The Basic idea behind it though is possible.

The only reason I was able to stand it was because I found the movie so unintentionally hilarious. The scenes where Wahlberg and company start running away from grass moving in the wind were just so damn funny. I wonder how they were told to act out that scene. "Look at this grass and pretend that it is out to kill you."

Not a complete was of time, if only to get a few laughs at Wahlberg's expense.

WTF did I just see? I can't believe that was a full-on hollywood movie. Something a film student would make...
