I'm not even done watching it and I'm writing this review. I just watched 10 minutes of wheat gathering. TEN MINUTES. Thanks Zack Snyder... that's some solid storytelling. 🙄
Truncated storytelling, poor development, multiple failed attempts at stylized photography and overuse of slow-mo... there should be a series that goes into the characters, but instead, the director opted to interrupt the flow with flashbacks. Nothing kills a movie's momentum like an irrelvant flashback. Just, NO.
That being said, it's beautiful. Phenomenal CGI, good imagination with regards to alien species, ships, planets, etc. Shame they couldn't extend that interest to the story.
