Title: What Were They Thinking
Review: I don't know why the people of hollywood had to destroy the great book written by L. Ron Hubbard. While I was watching the movie, it saddened me to see that they covered the first 100 pages in the first 10 minutes of the movie. The movie takes place in the future where an alien race takes over the earth to mine certain minerals from the ground. Travolta plays a disgruntled alien security advisor that is looking for a way off the wretched planet Earth. Barry Pepper plays one of the few remaining humans on the planet. The movie is slow, jumps about from one thing to another. It really didn't do anything for me. The acting was really poor as well, and I wonder why Travolta even agreed do such a thing. The book was such a wonderful story. It had a great message about humanity and hope. This movies destroys all of that and replaces it with abnoxious jokes and a few loud explosions. I would avoid this film if it were at all possible.
