This movie failed upon delivery. It had a cast I liked and the videography was state of the art and frankly stunning. The set was excellent and over all feel was that of a post modern world where today’s politics lived deep into the future. The plot becomes scattered and dialogue disjointed. The disconnection makes you wonder ‘what did I miss’. If it was not for the ‘picture’ of this film the writers created a unwatchable mess. They were handed a legendary film as a foundation and they created a high school filmmaker’s attempt at projecting the future of a franchise.

Hang in there and keep watching. It starts wells and leads off without answering the back grounds quickly enough. It’s fun watching a 2018 show that predicts late 2020s and early 2030s. Electric pick up trucks and Land Rovers and the failed self driving cars. It’s worth the binge watch for its production and decent acting.

OMG this thing is unwatchable. I give it two stars out of respect the complexities for the art(AI and Analog). The acting should have been done by AI since it lacked any human qualities. This is movie so bad it will never be a WaterWorld cult classic. Seriously, OMG WTF!

Thought provoking and a modern version of Apocalypse Now.

I am a hard core fan of WW2 and the historic struggles and the out right humanity of a war that effected the entirety of Earth. This movie’s set revealed that stunningly. Beyond the cinematic demonstration the plot never develops. The viewer waits for it and it never happens. The other glaring fail is the characters would not have been present in London during the Blitz. The DEI disgraced the real struggles of mother and child. Perhaps that’s why the plot never develops since it was beyond fiction within so much history. The 🎥 is pass. Save the 🍿 for another film. RJ Film Lover

Something is missing…seems like the acting is a bit off. Mark Strong should not be used as is he is far better being more tyrannical than empathetic and emotional. Travis Fimmel is doing a tired, done it and failed, washed and repeated version of the same Raised by Wolves character. The lead sisters have been fantastically and spot on. Most more worthy is age progression for Emily Watson. By far a cinematic rarity of finding a young actress that’s looks like the older character( think about the absolutely horrible job that was done by the latest prequel of GOT ref Milly Alcock vs Emma D’Arcy). The visual is enjoyable and at times stunning and expected. Personally I would HBO going back to its routes of showing the realities of nudity and violence. They are losing so much credibility and opportunity by diluting its self with DEI or better put ‘DIE’. Beware that I am being premature let’s hope it’s not a prophecy of more muddled and miss opportunities.

The Director’s cut make the movies far better. Anthony Hopkins's character development in DC helps. The DCs also provided way better action scene. Always a plus is nudity instead of a k ward almost nudity.

From the cast to the dialogue it’s all prefabricated rinse and repeat. The set is reminiscent of a 1980s High School production of Star Trek. Boldly go beyond and avoid. Peacock should be offering refunds and charged for wasting band width.

What does the gratuitous gay sex have to do with anything?

What a waster of money and my time. This reboot and obvious prelude to another disappointment is a waste. Tried really really tried to like it. But it was a bore of predictable lines and as a whole never entertains. Makes you wonder why Hollywood doesn’t get: If it ain’t broke don’t fix it!
