A Sound of Thunder (2005)

This is the type of movie that really frustrates me. It could have been so good yet it was so bad. Actually, it wasn’t that bad it just wasn’t very good. A mediocre movie is worse than a bad one because usually it is fun to watch a bad one. And in my book if a movie is fun to watch it’s a good movie even if it’s bad. So what I am trying to say is that A Sound of Thunder wasn’t much fun to watch. But it could have been. It’s based on an imaginative story by Ray Bradbury. The effects are passable. The cast is anchored by Ben Kingsley. Yet most of the action takes place by coincidence and the plot doesn’t drive the story at all.
