I Am Number Four (2011)

I Am Number Four is a never boring action packed sci-fi thriller new to DVD.

Directed by D.J. Caruso, the audience is introduced to John Smith, a teen alien from the planet Lorien. John is number four of nine survivors from the attempted annihilation of his planet. Those nine were sent to earth and spared in order to continue Lorien's legacy. But staying alive is no easy feat and is filled with constant motion and life altering scenarios. Now that numbers one through three are dead it is of crucial importance for John to embrace and control his newly discovered special powers. By doing so he's able to continue to fight and find the other five numbers to unite against the hunters that will go to no end to wipe the existence of Lorien away.

Starring Alex Pettyfer as Number Four, we also see him endure the same issues as any other teen...bullying, acceptances, and love. This allows this sci-fi film to appeal to a realist such as myself. Although it wraps up loose ends quickly, it will hold your attention and will definitely peek your curiosity throughout.

Be prepared for action and surprise when you pick this DVD up on Tuesday! You'll want to catch this one because you can trust that there will be sequels to come.
