Believe it or not, the remake of "The Day the Earth Stood Still" is getting bad reviews.

[Pale Blue Dot]

This botched remake of The Day the Earth Stood Still seriously dishonors the seriously fine 1951 sci-fi landmark on which it's based.
Todd McCarthy, Variety

{A} very, very bad film.

Like a skydiver whose parachute never opens, plummeting towards an ending that basically says, 'Humans: Awful at Environmentalism, Great at Hugging.'
Matt Pais, Metromix

The original movie's climax, an endearingly corny homily about the necessity of peace, has been replaced by a pointless tsunami of digital effects.
J.R. Jones, Chicago Reader

While Robert Wise's science-fiction classic The Day the Earth Stood Still" was a simple story of deep ideas, the remake is an overblown, puny-minded tale featuring extraterrestrials too stupid or lazy to do a background check on the species they condemn.
David Germain, Associated Press

This Earth could have moved if they had embraced the heart of Starman. Too bad they settled for a half-hearted Independence Day.
Roger Moore, Orlando Sentinel

Fox has sucked all the color out of The Day The Earth Stood Still...
Uncle Creepy, Dread Central

In case you haven't figured it out, I'm practically begging you not to give your hard-earned money to Fox (at least not when they are desecrating great old movies).
