    While it's definitely the safest route for publishers looking to make a buck on the hottest movie of the month, it sure doesn't make for engaging gameplay.

    I like games that involve strategy, but this game has none. You do what the game wants you to do with a just a bit of brain power involved, but no strategy.

    Just a terrible game. Nothing more to say, really. Combined single stragety and annoying graphics to get something of lower class as this.
