June 26, 2009I tried to like this movie but it sucked so much. I was suprised by the cast of the movie which i was excited to watch, but all that talent misused and misplaced was just a shame. This kid is way too much of a fuckin snob to be a spy and his arrogance made him fuckin stupid to. T... ...( read more )

September 4, 2008Torture. I still don't know why I agreed to watch it, peer pressure maybe. Clicheed storyline, awful score, even more awful acting. Predictable, superficial. Every other adjective for "bad" u can think of. Give this money to Werner Herzog. Bye

June 18, 2008A great movie that followed the book really well. My only issue with it is that they changed the personality of some of the characters and made them comical when they are meant to be serious characters.

February 12, 2008I didn't like it. It would have been fine if I was 16 and female (sorry for the sexist comment).

Moira MacDonald, Seattle Times
A pointless junior version of James Bond minus the budget (and the suaveness). full review

Steven Rea, Philadelphia Inquirer
Taken for what it is -- 'tweenage escapism -- Stormbreaker is moderately fun. full review

Colin Covert, The Minneapolis Star Tribune
Ambitious and enjoyably silly teen thriller. full review

November 6, 2007It came out in August. It didn't come out where I lived though. They do have the DVDs though. Go to Blockbusters they have it there (or at least for me). I need to see it so badly, I don't even know why, but I just need to see it...(Yes, I do read the books, i'm on the last one "Ark Angel"...)

June 22, 2007God, I hate it when people go all moony over cute actors. He's cute, I'll give you that. Girls, wake up! He smokes. He quit school. He's got a flippin tattoo. He's not that great of a person from what I've seen so far. All this stuff tells you he's got some seriously misplaced priorities. Movie's great, but come on. What happens when, not if, when he falls from favor because some cuter guy is acting. He has nothing to fall back on. I suppose he could always become a model for Gap or something, but he's really not that great. Some little kids might look up to him and think, Wow, smoking and being a dropout is cool. Let's completely mess up our lives. And then you've got a bunch of adults that have no idea how to live a decent life because all they care about is looking cool. That's why some unnamed countries will go to pot because of actors/actresses like these. Let's hope next time that they pick a better guy for Point Blanc.
