Review of I Am Number Four (2011) by Nick M — 16 Jan 2012

Unfortunately, there just isn't much good to say about "I Am Number Four". While the story may be simple, I found to be intriguing, but it just isn't fleshed out at all. We don't learn anything about these people we're supposed to be caring about and there's just too much focus on the teen drama moreso than the aliens trying to kill Number Four.

And that just makes for one boring movie. As for the acting, Alex Pettyfer is alright as Four, but dang, Timothy Olyphant is just wasted in his role as Henri. The only real redeeming quality I can give to the movie is the last fight/action scene which is actually quite good and entertaining.

Too bad the rest of the movie couldn't be as good.
