A Sound Of Thunder: 4/10
Proof once again that classic sci-fi tales COULD be made into proper movies, but probably wont. They deviated so far from the original story that it makes me wonder why they bother making such flicks at all. Which is weird cuz according to internet lore, the original director was fired cuz he wanted to take things in a new direction, but the producers (supposedly) wanted to stay true to Bradbury's original vision. Except they didnt. They fucked up story elements, they complicated simple things and added excess crap that didnt matter. They threw in a couple of extra hot chicks just for the hell of it.
Sad, all around. Even worse was that it had an awesome cast.
