was ready to leave within about 30 mins of it starting. Not too keen on the books either.

# The first film was good,
in that when you first see it you're not sure whats going on, and its exciting when its revealed what has happened to the human race. Sure, it has its share of bad acting, but as a concept its really good and it did make for an enjoyable film.

The second film was a bit arse, though.

# I thought...
...that Keanu Reeves character called for someone who was mainly bewildered and confused.

Therefore he was perfectly cast.
