heres a shitty review.
fuckijn ell, i tried to like it. especially with the intro. great song and visual and it felt good. i was enthralled. not 100% perfect mind you but certainly an astonishing intro. then the opening sequence thing. also good at showing some world but its lacking in places. for example it could establish towns customs and worlds lore visually (since post-apocalyptic setting and by nature very different) and does some but not much. instead it goes for a more character driven/development way. i could of handled this if the characters weren't also shit. they're stupid (both in actions and as characters
...
knowing things they shouldn't know), unlikable and not developed enough. characterization was thrown out the window (except that 'main character throws an important personal item away from them to symbolize they have grown' cliches witch is still lazy) it continues like a flawed gem but slowly reveals more flaws than gem.
the plot is generic but that isn't really a criticism. boring characters, sub par acting, and bad writing. i didn't feel a connection with plot, characters, world or anything. it didnt make me invested. many easily spotted cliches and predictability. a message that is misconstrued because of plot elements. deus ex machinas right out of asses. continuity fuckups. a graph of this movies awesomeness over time would have negative correlation. ending shit
all in all, this movie had promise. setting and some plot could have been awesome but it ends up being shit. the reason why i hate it some much tho (and am writing this) is because the intro and opening sequence were great. should have been in a better movie. although re watching opening in my current bitter cynical view it seems more shit that i was lead on to believe.
