Saw it in the theater with my kids. We all really enjoyed it.

I guess it's a credit to the filmmakers to say I bought that a thing in a hole could make a kid fly more than I bought the story that one of the kids would happen to be walking around with a camera all the time, and another would happen to meet a chick who does the same.

Was the whole "found-footage" storytelling style necessary? I think they wouldn't have lost much if they'd just played it straight.

Also, I liked the beginning a lot more than the end, but overall, not bad.
