Negative Positive
Title: fabulous effects, mediocre story, not watchable more than once
Review: As a fan of hard sci-fi, I am at a loss as to why so many current productions have great computer effects but the same banal plots (revolutionary against dystopia with special abilites to inflict violence, etc.). I read reviews, buy them, and then feel so disappointed that I never want to view them again. For the most part, while occasionally intrigued, I feel, "that's it? They did this whole thing and THAT was all they had to offer?" Unfortunately, this is one of those films: the images are striking, the mystery fun, and then you get to the end and wonder how any producer could have imagined it would sell enough to recoup the investment.Not recommended. I won't play the spoiler, but really, you are better off reading the comic book.
Is the review positive or negative?
