Convoluted and a mess of a movie. Felt super disconnected from the characters. Amazing world, special and visual effects. Wanted more of that. An absolute treat for the eyes and imagination but just that everything else was generic, lackluster, disappointing, nonsensical, not properly explained or the movie just jumps around willy Nilly and can be confusing to say the least. I really wanted to like it because I love sci fi and we don't get enough of this sort of thing, but the end result isn't greater than the sum of its parts. Perhaps a director's cut is required/ necessary, as it really seemed like good chunks of the movie were missing.
Intrigued about this movie, I might go watch it the weekend, but not too sure.
Curious to see what other people think!
Not bad, the visuals were astounding, story wise it's Avatar/Pocahontas but with AI instead of blue dudes/natives, the Middle East and 9/11 parallel was very clear, maybe too clear (>!I'll save you from American!<),
looks like a mashup of call of duty, district 9, terminator, and misc super magical golden child stories
