The trailer for this looks good, but then again that's the whole purpose of a movie trailer. I just have to wonder if Keanu Reeves is the right actor for the role of Klaatu.
This is kind of like my impressions of War of the Worlds remake and casting Tom Cruise in the lead role.

I dunno, Michael Rennie was kind of stone-faced in the original. Keanu's normal flatline bloodless delivery would match that fairly well. Whether that's what you'd WANT is another question...
