Featured review
This is the future of cinema
Visuals, audio and music are ok. Costumes, weapons, effects, etc. Are ok, even great. And the subject matter is also cool, but the truly meaningful side of things (like writing, characters, world building...) mostly sucks (or actually, it is kind of non-existent).
First of all, I have some major gripes with some aspects of this universe, like for example:
Why do they need to aim a battleship's cannon with hand wheels? Their engineers have built spaceships, walking tanks, laser guns, and whatever else, but they haven't been able to build electric motors, laser guidance or something, anything else?
Military tactics are also pretty much non existent - the farmers who have never seen combat in any form learn to take down seasoned (presumably) warriors of the empire in a day or two. To be fair it is pretty easy to shoot people when they run in a tight pack towards you out in the open and over a tight bridge without anyone giving covering fire. They also have a huge tank but it never hits anyone although they are basically standing still (or moving in slow motion).
But I guess all that and more doesn't matter as long as it looks cool.
And btw, I still don't know why the one ship needs the grain of some backwater planet that apparently has only one tiny village that does all its farming by hand (like we used to like a hundred - or two hundred - years ago). Other than that one village (that has like 50 inhabitants, children included), the planet (or a moon, I guess) apparently has nothing else on it. They also manage to harvest all their grain in like a day or two (unbelievable feat). One would think that a huge honking battleship would have something better to do, llike blow the damn planet (moon) out of existentce and go home?
Zack sure does like slow motion. The whole movie would probably be only an hour and a half long without all that. It reminds me a lot of Justice League's Snyder Cut which was also kind of agonizingly streched out (still much better than this though). Watching wheat harvesting in slo mo was a new experience for me.
Acting is pretty much as good as it can be under the circumstances, meaning it is kind of non-existent. Green screen is clearly the heart and sould here and sadly that means that basically every bit of dialogue is delivered while the characters are standing, sitting or laying still. Environmental interaction? No such thing - god forbid anyone talks while they are moving around or doing stuff. We see a bunch of people cutting grain in slow motion but they have nothing to talk about while doing it, like idk, something that would make the characters actually be something other than lifelike props that couldn't be created digitally (I mean, they might as well be digital because then they could actually interact with these digital environments they are in). We get some very basic backstories for the main characters but all that is shows just as simple flashbacks with voiceovers, which is like the simplest way to tell any backstory (it would have been much better if the first movie would have told these backstories as actual storylines instead of this crap).
These aren't problems only in these movies but what most streaming shows and movies more or less look like these days, especially scifi, fantasy and action. Characters are boring and stale, their relationships offer very little to care about and dialogue tends to be way too complicated and unrealistic. They are more like some wierd art pieces instead of stories about lives and experiences of any meaningful and identifiable substance. I don't even remember the names of most of the characters in these movies and I literally finished watching it like ten minutes ago. That is how much the characters meant to me. Anthony Hopkins does well as the voice of the James robot - but his character is actually CGI and can technically do stuff that people can't (not that he does much, but he could have).
Now, it is pretty and watchable, I'm not saying that I hate it. But it is extremely poor in comaprison to what it could be (and especially should be, with a budget like this). Honestly, anyone who calls this a masterpiece, or a great war movie, either has a wild imagination that fills in all the gaps and covers up all the weirdness (or has a very simple mind). What this a masterpiece of, is slow motion action (with wheat harvesting and water bottle filling). If nothing else, it could probably could earn some kind of reward for that at least...
