Three are dead. He is Number Four. D.J. Caruso helms an action-packed thriller about an extraordinary young man, John Smith (Alex Pettyfer), who is a fugitive on the run from ruthless enemies sent to destroy him. Changing his identity, moving from town to town with his guardian Henri (Timothy Olyphant), John is always the new kid with no ties to his past. In the small Ohio town he now calls home, John encounters unexpected, life-changing events - his first love (Dianna Agron), powerful new abilities and a connection to the others who share his incredible destiny.

I am a huge fan of Sci-Fi and fantasy movies. This movie just kind of combined them both with the sci fi being the aliens and the fantasy more of the telekinetic ability and on top of all of that it has some amazing drama scenes in it I wish they would just make a sequel to it already I mean you really don't have to think that much if you read the book and pay attention to the details and descriptions and find people that match them and make the movie already I mean you managed to write a book how about a script now. I hope someone will actually agree with me.

Most of the informative parts were replaced with largely unrelated happenings, empty teen romance, an early and all too brief exposition dump, cheapened emotional appeals, and the dumbest and most useless application of Parkour I've ever seen - down to the completely pointless and plagiarized faux waterfall dive. The director tried too hard to be hip, edgy, compelling, and pack in all the elements. This movie was clearly forced to be something its not, and wasn't intended to be.

Actually despite the less than 5* reviews I found this to be a fairly good movie. At first I was concerned that I had blown a few bucks but it picked up really well after a while so I am not disappointed whatsoever. The Chimera was an excellent addition and for those who love that lovable "pet" you will be pleased. This could have been a run of the mill SiFi so-so movie but it does pick up with the action and the "bad Aliens" were so super cool, LOL. All in all it was worth the money and the time spent watching it.
