This past Tuesday I had the opportunity to watch a screening of Disney’s new movie John Carter in 3D that is playing in theaters now. John Carter is a science fiction movie, a type of movie that I don’t normally watch but since it was a film from Disney, I had to see what it was all about.
Once John Carter started playing on the screen in 3D, I was glued to my seat and the movie kept my attention even being over 2 hours long.
About the film:
From Academy Award®–winning filmmaker Andrew Stanton comes “John Carter”—a sweeping action-adventure set on the mysterious and exotic planet of Barsoom (Mars). “John Carter” is based on a classic novel by Edgar Rice Burroughs, whose highly imaginative adventures served as inspiration for many filmmakers, both past and present. The film tells the story of war-weary, former military captain John Carter, who is inexplicably transported to Mars where he becomes reluctantly embroiled in a conflict of epic proportions amongst the inhabitants of the planet, including Tars Tarkas and the captivating Princess Dejah Thoris. In a world on the brink of collapse, Carter rediscovers his humanity when he realizes that the survival of Barsoom and its people rests in his hands.
Here are some photo clips from a few scenes in the movie:
While watching this movie, I was really fascinated by some of the special effects and some of the funny looking characters. One of my favorite characters is the creature in the trailer below. He actually reminds my daughter and I of our dog. 🙂
I am not going to share all the details of this fun movie, but I will say that it does have a great ending. I LOVE that this movie was in 3D too!
