well and i have to say i wasn not expect much from the movie when i saw the trailer . i wasn not wrong . people should beware when movie of the same genre appear in big number while it will mean that at least 3 of 4 will be mediocre and bad or no redeem value and whatever . spoiler . maybe while the adventure focus the most part on the grow and surprinsing ( because nobody can actually explain how many power will have or how do he get them ) of will treston and it also point the relationship of him and with his family ( big family and by the way ) and and maybe love wise . yet and the prophecy from which he be unaware and suddenly take part over his life and when he mets the raider while he pursue will and with some dog you wont see again and he babble something like give me the sign and run away scar of some people that call themselves old one . probably and it seem like the normal fantasy adventure plot . boy . prophecy . hero . mission . some help . danger . peril . plot twist . final battle . end . wow that sound like ocarina of time . but i be not satisfy by the plot . will find the sign . for example and on a tomb ( on the local church ) and on her sister birthday present and ok totally unexpected and the super predict and most obvious sign ( the soul ) . but for that and will do not even have to walk a mile from his home . his power . angered explosion and super strength ( sometimes he be a pussy and actually ) and and telekinesis ( which he do not care to use it and more than once ) . but and since all those power be shitty and many character actually do not care to react at them ( will sister and brother ) or he be willing to keep them have a secret ( let me tell you a secret . i have super power ) . all this . i could easily forget it . but what destroy me completely . be the disco battle ( final fight between the old one and the raider ) or the final fight between will and the raider ( the effect of the light and dark energy look so crappy and a white and dark blanket and would have work well ) so and ill give it a 3 and because it be not the bad movie i have see yet . but because of the many plot hole and . why to put maggie and stephen on the promotional poster if they barely act on the film . bad advertising .
