I am Number Four(2010)

Directed by D. J. Caruso

There are nine of them, Aliens charged with protecting their race. They as infants are sent to earth to hide from their brutal enemies. The nine are separated and raised by the protectors.

Unfortunately the enemies have found earth and are now killing the nine off. But they can only be killed in order. And Number 3 just died. so Number 4 is next.

Number 4's protector takes him to a little town in the middle of no where hoping to hide Number 4(John) but the enemies somehow find out where John is. But John unfortunately has fallen in love with an aspiring photographer in the town. Now John's kind only falls in love once. Its like when they find someone they love, they know its their true love(convenient right). John doesn't want to leave Sarah(the photographer). So the enemies come to him and John has to fight them, and when he is about to die by one of the aliens, it is blasted by Number 6, who is going to help save John's life.

The movie was actually surprisingly entertaining. The visual effects were really good. The acting was good for the most part. Of course there was no religion in it. But for me it didn't really make that much of an impact on the actual film. It is not I repeat not a children's film, there are scary monsters in it that will give children nightmare(it gave me a creepy dream, not a nightmare but a creepy dream) and there is a very disturbing scene that is better left not described. It is not a children's film, but it is a good teen/young adult film.

P.S. A lot of my dreams are creepy, it makes the exciting.
