Okay, we just got back. It annoys me that a movie that had so much potential would be so silly.
In this version the humans talk, which I found disturbing. Imagine if you went to get a new puppy and the mother dog said in perfect English, "Please don't take my baby away from me." Would you get the puppy? The only thing I could think of is they were trying to draw an analogy to slavery, i.e. buying and selling someone who could speak, express love and sorrow, etc. Like I said, this could have really been a good movie but they blew it.
The ending sucked, too.
