Negative Positive
Title: 2nd star for FX only
Review: I suppose my expectations were too high after having seen the cartoon long ago and holding it in fond memory.Dialogue is insufferably hackneyed in this film.The characters betray their initial and original anti-hero nature long before the major plot cop-outs that render morally questionable characters into cardboard heroes.Get the cartoon anthology instead; this movie is not worth buying and only worth renting as part of a double-bill or multi-title sitting.Even great special effects left me yawning at insipid characters played by actors too important in the Hollywood food chain to be allowed unsympathetic roles or dialogue with words & memes they're too dim to express with conviction of understanding.And, as all too usual in Hollywood, when the pace falters, it's time to show off automatic weapons. I never knew machine guns could be so boring.
Is the review positive or negative?
