About
Synopsis
The Day the Earth Stood Still (2008) — watch online on iFILM: a sci-fi thriller from 20th Century Fox directed by Scott Derrickson. Keanu Reeves stars as Klaatu, alongside Jennifer Connelly and Jaden Smith.
An alien emissary arrives not to make contact — but to judge. Klaatu has studied humanity's track record and the verdict is grim. Biologist Helen Benson and her stepson Jacob are the only people who get close enough to change his mind. Kathy Bates plays a defense secretary who reaches for military force first, while John Cleese brings a quieter urgency as a scientist who sees what's actually at stake. Watch The Day the Earth Stood Still (2008) online on iFILM.
