Awesome is a word so overused that it's lost its impact, but this brief teaser truly inspires awe in its original sense, an overwhelming feeling of reverence, admiration, and fear. Even the music has the ethereal feel of the score for Stanley Kubrick's 2001, giving a sense of forces beyond mortal understanding. I've watched this half a dozen times now, and each time it ends I find myself staring at the black screen in stunned silence for several moments. It harkens back to the original 1954 movie, but it feels so fresh, new, and confident. I now have no doubt that we're not looking at another half-baked animal-on-the-loose movie like in 1998; this is truly man vs nature.
The walking natural disaster is back.
