GREAT, but rough around the edges
Saw the trailer and tought: That looks fun for an evening. And it was. More then I expected.
The movie weaves quite an few themes, quite effectively. Buddycop, father-daughter, mystery, Cyberpunk, mediëval fantasy. But the most important thing to rate is: What is the movie trying to be good at?
And wat it tries to be good at, is an FUN ADVANTURE WITH NIMONA AS LEAD. And that part DILIVERS! It is an absolute BLAST to see her interact with the other lead and crushing enemies in an HIGH TEMPO, OCTANE FILLED ACTION ADVANTURE.
But it is rough around the edges. Sometimes literally as backgrounds can be pretty flat. But also in story: Some scenes could use some revisiting to iron out some rushed character development, or just setting the scene an little different to be move believing.
But it also preforms one of the greatest sin on the start of the movie: AN EXPOSITION DUMP. Witch is very sad, because for the rest of the movie handles exposition pretty effectively.
There is an 10/10 somewhere hidden in this movie, with just an little more care, time and money. But it is still pretty great.
