Dakota Fanning
Normally I like her
But I just wanted to slap her in just about every scene she was in. Her character was just an annoying little brat.
Back in 2005 this board had at least 10 threads full of people complaining about the yelling Dakota. Now 10 years later I see the hate for her has no ceased a bit. LOL
shareIt's heartwarming to see, isn't it?
I dunno, even in the Twighlight utter *beep* movies Dakota gives off the impression that she is a little spoilt cow.
I'm not saying she is in real life, I hear Dakota is a very nice person, but in those 2 movies, no imo. She was great in Man On Fire. She crys a lot though.
sharebrat? how was she a brat exactly? a brat is someone who doesn't listen to their parents, who complains and throws tantrums and is stubborn. which fanning did none of in the film. she acted scared at times. her character had small panic attacks, but who wouldn't if aliens were coming out of the ground trying to destroy everyone?? she wasn't a brat. she only showed concern and care for her brother and dad. fanning and cruise were the stars of this film. and I would even go as far to say that her acting, in some cases, surpassed cruise's.

I know that this is months after you initially posted this, but I think a better word would have been "Annoying." I'm sure the OP would feel the same sentiments regardless of the word used. And yes, her character was annoying in this movie. I'm not picking apart the actions of a child reacting to real world situations. I just found her character annoying.
shareI am literally watching it now, in the background, whilst writing something up and came here to see if that was the case. I've been pleading for her to meet a grisly end but for some reason she keeps managing to evade a just fate.
Very unlikeable children that lead you to root for the aliens to win.
