Wasn't this originally supposed to come out in January?

Not usually my cup of tea but it might be good.

Same guy who did Legion. Like that, this is going to be unbearably stupid. This guy, whoever the heck he is, is clearly someone who makes films thinking largely about what he can put in the trailer.

Looks like a good DVD popcorn film... I couldn't picture Bettany in this type of role when I read it, but maybe it will work... only thing I remember seeing Cam Gigandet in was Twilight and one of the CSI episodes...

Looks good I will definatly wait for the dvd release :yup:

Kind of reminds me of a mix between Legion and Feast.

Well, Paul Bettany, was Jarvis in Ironman and I'll be giving it a go!

Legion was really a stupid film...
This movie is based on a kickass Korean manga... But this looks nothing like it..
I can't believe people adapt the original material into something reallly silly.

But I have to admit Karl Urban looks awesome.

Couldn't have said it better. Lots of trailer hype and no actual payoff.

So he's like most Hollywood directors then. Hell, there are times when you can watch a film and just guess which shots/lines were in the trailer and, a lot of the time, I'm right.

Aye, though I think this dude is the next leap in the evolution of such things.

God, this looks terrible.

This is like when Angelina Jolie made "Salt" then shortly after she is making some other Spy flick "The Tourist". Recipe for disaster.

Seems like Legion with a new angle, but Legion already squeezed what little juice was left out of that lemon. Cgi sci-fi looks great in trailers (Skyline?) but it rarely pays off. I'll wait for the bargain barrel at Wal-Mart in about a year.
