Definitely not that bad.

I was entertained, and that's what its all about.

I never really understood the hate.movie has some really entertaining parts plus John Travolta was pretty solid in most parts.sure,the rest of the cast was weak but that didn't bother me so much overall.the special effects were good for the time it was released.

6/10 in my book.

The plot is inane. This could perhaps have worked as an anime, where people are more willing to suspend any and all disbelief, but there are so many plot holes that it ruins any technical or action-wise elements the film may have had.

I am someone who can enjoy garbage like Arnolds Sixth day from the same year, or even Jupiter Ascending. But this annoying silly, stupid, ridiculous film of stone age men vs aliens is just too damn stupid and silly. 2/10. Not even bad in the sense that it is funny, like Wicker man (2006).

To each his own. I love Ray Stevenson in Punisher: War Zone. It's a stupid movie, but I enjoy the action. If you enjoy it, have fun.

I agree. Halfway decent plot and effects. But just because it is not bad, doesn't mean it is actually good, but it is a decent movie to watch if there is nothing else on. Travolta looks move human in that movie than he does in real life now.
