The Day the Earth Stood Still

An alien emissary arrives on Earth to judge whether humanity can stop damaging the planet. As governments respond with fear and military force, a scientist and a troubled young boy become connected to his mission and the fate of the world.

My take

You may enjoy this if you like serious, environmentally focused science fiction with apocalyptic stakes, such as Knowing; Not for you if you want warm characters, subtle dialogue, or a faithful remake.
