Yeah, its true that the kid comes through in the end. Kind of like the recent remake of "Poltergeist." Even if the movie was terrible, the little boy in the film did undergo some changes and you get to see him go from an annoying prick to a heroic child who finds the bravery within to redeem himself of his mistakes by saving his sister, which was nice. Unfortunately, the film was overloaded with bad CGI effects and bad acting, as well as adding nothing new to the franchise.
