I think they were harsh because they strayed from the source material. Thankfully, not as badly as other movies or series. I like the movie. I thought the actor they chose for John/Four was perfect. The problem with changing core principles from the source makes it harder to make sequels. That and it's really hard to convert books to movies especially when it's complex like this series. I will stop rambling now. One more thing and then I will stop. The main thing they strayed in were the powers. They were similar but different in the book which may be inconsequential in the early books but if you read later books. Let's just say there's a reason he's the star of the first book of the series.
I was listening to this while on my walk and I was like yeah. This girl mad creepy! If a guy had a bunch of pictures of her when she wasn’t even paying attention she would’ve been buggin!
Loved that movie. Interesting storyline and just enough special effects to keep the power scenes realistic. Overdone special effects in today's movies make them nearly unwatchable.
It actually is.. there is about 30 or more books that carry the story. They are all very good. The first book that is similar to this movie is better, and some things are different as well. Worth reading.
If there's anybody who enjoyed the movie and the story it is based on a series of YA novels much like The Hunger Games. There's 7 books in the series plus a sequel series. It's a fun read. There's a lot that happens. But you'll be able to see where the characters and story go.
If u hit it twice it will turn off your dislike hit it once it turns it on but just incase someone changes there mind then if they hit it again it will take it off of there
I love this movies...I seen it 11 times before but now I'm going go watch it one more time before I go to work. Thanks, I was looking for something entertaining to watch.
Ive always liked the movie but should have made a sequal to finish off the story but insted like what always happens in movie and tv shows they cancel them on a cliffhanger
I wouldnt have the mental capacity to just stay calm and not kill the bullies with the powers he got. Id just go on a blood lust but thats just me who cant control my anger. 🤣
As 6 year old, I watched "Space Ghost" by Hanna-Barbera, and have been hooked on science fiction/fantasy since. Thank you an interesting story well told! ❤🎉
They could re-do this as a TV series... tell more of the story and introduce some of the other numbers and special powers... I enjoyed it, and wish it got more attention.
@@BradleyGibbs exactly my point. When they made this, it was with the intention of becoming the "next twilight" or "next harry potter" or "next hunger games".. like several other book series turned movies, when they don't perform as well as expected at the box office they scrap the follow ups, like Solomon Kane (which I thought was a great opening movie), they spend a lot of time world building, back story work.. so it being a one and done film it feels incomplete, because it is.
@@Ilicet except those examples you listed tried to faithfully follow the source material, while I Am Number Four strayed so far away from it that a sequel wouldn't have been possible.
@@BradleyGibbs the ending of the film sets up a sequel.. so they were planning on making a sequel following the source material or not. There are plenty of examples of movie series, and tv series abandoning the source material because the writers think they can do better.
Wow, me & my cat enjoyed watching this thrilling & bizarre science fiction episode about John who was such a "POUNDER" & it always keeps my cat's ears up like an owl 🦉LOL. AWESOME! I admire him for that! 😛😛🐱🐱👍👍✌✌
The football player's name on the poster is Bernie Kosar (pronounced like co-star, but remove the 'T') who played for the Cleveland Browns. I remember watching this movie years ago and enjoying. Thought they might make a sequel.
The movie was alright, I wish it stayed true to the source material more and instead of a movie it was a TV series, that way you'd get more of the background and lore
I have a copy of the movie on a dvr and have watched it many times. Weird that I just realized John left Bernie on the wet floor at the school when he came limping back at the end.
Great movie, I wish they did a sequel. Critics was a little harsh about the movie.
I watched this movie years ago, I will watch the sequel if it comes out.

What's the title please
@@elizabethboahen4304 I am number four
@@johnlove6194 Yeah, we get it you, were the 4th one to respond to the original comment, but what’s the name of the movie?
What you missed is that Sam blasted one of the Mogs with a ray gun...stating something to the effect "I play a lot of Xbox" to Sarah. Awesome line.
YEAH I remember that line LOL 😆 😅
So, Sarah is clearly a stalker. If a guy took all those photos and put them on a website, he'd be arrested.
I was listening to this while on my walk and I was like yeah. This girl mad creepy! If a guy had a bunch of pictures of her when she wasn’t even paying attention she would’ve been buggin!
There is no guy that wouldn't love a girl this into them. If you flip the scenario than you're in jail!
@@davidcarron2328 i think most guys would hate this actually being stalked isnt fun
@@Joshua-fs9vmYet, they're 90 percent of stalkers
@@chorizoramen93 and how many percent of men are stalkers?

This was such an incredible film, we need a prequel and a sequel
What is the name of that movie?
I remember watching the movie and I enjoyed it very much. I wish it were the pilot to an entire series.
It actually is.. there is about 30 or more books that carry the story. They are all very good. The first book that is similar to this movie is better, and some things are different as well. Worth reading.

That’s probably why I enjoyed it alot
"If you didn't like it hit the dislike button, twice, just to be sure". lol, that one made my day.
😁
What's funny to me is, even when they’re proven right, he calls them [deleted] theorists.
If u hit it twice it will turn off your dislike hit it once it turns it on but just incase someone changes there mind then if they hit it again it will take it off of there
I clicked it thrice just to be double sure.
Unironically one of my favorite movies ever. I really hope there is another one made.
Crap ton of books that carry the story. Worth the read.
I am glad the doggo survived.
I forgot about this movie. I read the book, too. Real good. I was in high school at that time.
I love this movies...I seen it 11 times before but now I'm going go watch it one more time before I go to work. Thanks, I was looking for something entertaining to watch.
Was so hoping for a second and third for this movie. It's a crime fun original movies get deadened, John Carter was another.
Totally agree on both accounts! I'm a big Edgar Rice Burroughs fan.
Read the books.. the many books after this are fantastic.
Facts
i would like to see an updated version of that movie sometime in the near future.
Bernie is a good dog at heart ❤️!
they need to make a sequel to this.
Book sequels (and whole series) exist
Should’ve made a sequel movie was so good 😭
This was great... I wish they had continued the series.
This video is incredible, I totally enjoyed watching it, wow their superpower are incredible, with their amazing skills. 💙👏💙
Loved this movie..I thought there was going to be a sequel to this..but sadly nothing..😔
Dope movie! This movie made me really like Dianna Agron. I never paid attention to her before this.
This was such a great movie, wish they would've kept going with the story!!!!!
Trust me read the books. Such an amazing series with huge big screen potential but the movie just didn’t hit
This movie need a second part
This is one of my favorite movies. I always hoped they would make a sequel.
Great job thank you
Thank you too!
Love 💞💖 the movie. I wish they could have continued the story.
Really liked it.
I just wish they had done the sequel. And: every one of us who is fan should reread the books, maybe more than one more time!
I really liked this movie. I wish they would make another one ❤
The plot is more like a comic book ..but keeps you glued ...
Should we hit the like button twice too? 🙄
...just to be sure.
😁
And just do the minimum? Hit it three times. Just to be sure
Ah yes, hit the like button first time and then hit it again to unlike it....
@@zoluhwa3508 great minds think alike. 🤔
12:26 I love watching these your doing great with these
Guapísimo Alex pettyfer! Oh ! Muy bueno 😊
Good film great ending song aswell
Really good movie.thanks. and i hope there will be rest series too
I've watched this movie but I think it needs to be continued like having a part 2
I really enjoy the books. Too bad no sequels on this movie 😢
Ive always liked the movie but should have made a sequal to finish off the story but insted like what always happens in movie and tv shows they cancel them on a cliffhanger
Always hoped that they would make a sequel.
It was great keep up
bookmarked, this looks like a keeper. will watch when i can 🐶🐶⭐⭐🍕🍕🍺🍺
Trust me, read the books.
@@emmanuelcolin5689 Thanks, will look for them 🐨
I wish they continued with this movie 🍿🎥 it was a fantastic movie❤❤❤❤❤
I remember this movie but I couldn't remember it bc at the time I was sick I'm glad to finally figure out it was really (:
Yes I saw it when it came out, truly loved it. And all these years later still waiting for another.☺️
Same here!
That movie deserved to become a franchise !
I loved this movie. Wish they continued this.
I like it and assured to be hit like button 2 times
I wouldnt have the mental capacity to just stay calm and not kill the bullies with the powers he got. Id just go on a blood lust but thats just me who cant control my anger. 🤣
I know what you mean. But, being in that situation your whole life, being told over and over again that you have to keep a low profile...
Good review - as always. Looks like a fun movie. I like your jokes at the beginning of the reviews! My friend, Kirk, calls them "Dad jokes"!
Thank you kindly
@@USRecap What is the name of this movie?
I enjoyed the recap and never saw the movie but it seems like it would be a good one.
VERY CONFUSING!
As 6 year old, I watched "Space Ghost" by Hanna-Barbera, and have been hooked on science fiction/fantasy since. Thank you an interesting story well told! ❤🎉
Thanks
Great movie, wish there would be a follow up..
I just so happen to watch this movie today
Great movie
Did they ever make a part 2
One of my fav movies ever! I even got my tattoo ❤
Fav Alex Pettyfer movie
I would dearly love to watch these full movies however, no clue as to where to look for them.
They could re-do this as a TV series... tell more of the story and introduce some of the other numbers and special powers... I enjoyed it, and wish it got more attention.
Super underrated movie. deffinetly worth a watch :)
I might check this out this weekend
I wish you could make a recap of Mr. and Mrs. Smith 😊

@@USRecap ?
It would be nice to have a link to the full movie
Definitely in my top 5 movies of all time 🎉
It's always a happy ending when a cute doggie survives its ordeal!

I had the same thought!
I had watched the actual movie and it was really good
Great film r❤r I love you Leandro Lendáz ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️ r❤r r❤️r
Nice movie❤
Great videos!
Glad you like them!
I WISH THEY MAKE ANOTHER ONE
That's what I said when it came out, but I doubt the same ones would do it now.
Wild! The person who wrote the story has an awsome imagination!
I enjoyed the summary but the movie is not for me. I liked the effort you put into it. Thanks
Omg I love this movie my brother read the whole series
Please tell me the name of this drama, I can't remember the name of this drama
Dogs was like brooooo I’m not dead yet what’s good where you goin
That boy with the black shirt he looks like Adam from supernatural
I think i would have to buy a dvd of this movie if its still available.
I like this one when it came out, it would have made a good trilogy, or netflix series or something.
It is from a book series

This movie was actually filmed at the same highschool I go to lol
👏👍
shame there was never a sequel to that film... i loved it... to many critics gave it bad reviews unfort
Bernie coming out of nowhere was the best!
All you need to know is it has Timothy oliphant that’s enough information to make you watch
I read up to the 5th book. OMG, maybe it's time to reread from the first one and finally finish the series.
So many talk about this movie, why has NO ONE TOLD THE NAME OF IT ?????
Not sure if serious, but just in case: I Am Number 4
wish there had been a sequel to this movie
Wow, me & my cat enjoyed watching this thrilling & bizarre science fiction episode about John who was such a "POUNDER" & it always keeps my cat's ears up like an owl 🦉LOL. AWESOME! I admire him for that! 😛😛🐱🐱👍👍✌✌
Oh wow!
I saw the whole movie years ago after my youngest daughter was born ,great movie!
Love this movie
I vaguely remember this movie from back in the day
The football player's name on the poster is Bernie Kosar (pronounced like co-star, but remove the 'T') who played for the Cleveland Browns. I remember watching this movie years ago and enjoying. Thought they might make a sequel.

Alex pettyfer guapísimo 😍 💕 😊💖💖💕😊
"They decided to move to Paradise.... Ohio". I don't know if that pause was intentional, but it cracked me up.
Still waiting for the sequel!
Was about to rent it when I saw that anti-American logo "Disney".
Ain't never gonna happen!
This is sorta a update of 'The Powers of Matthew Starr'....I need to watch this
Nice Movie! I think the name of these movie is I am No. 4?.
I am Number 4
I have a copy of the movie on a dvr and have watched it many times. Weird that I just realized John left Bernie on the wet floor at the school when he came limping back at the end.
Great movie, I wish they did a sequel. Critics was way way harsh about the move for I am a big sci-fi fan.
what was the name of the movie ? please
