A Sound of Thunder is a time-travel adventure, one of those
effects-laden movies in which man putatively battles nature but really
himself and his own hubris. That means that the dire warnings of noble
scientists about the dangerous butterfly-effect of meddling with the
past are ignored in a mad dash for cash, and then subsequently grappled
with in clumsy, predictable sci-fi fashion. The irony, though, is that
despite all of its noise and fury, the $80 million A Sound of Thunder
stands poised to disappear from the collective filmgoer consciousness
with barely a ripple of consequence, just as it did at the domestic box
office, where it tanked to the tune of a $1.9 million one-month release
(yep, you read that right) last autumn. For the full review, from IGN, click here.
