Completely wasting a genre that's meant to be child-like, colourful and fun.
The writing is terrible: the plot is weak, the "surprise" is obvious from the very first spoken line, the timeline is nonsensical, the villain is powerless (yet manages to hold his ground for a while,) the inferno is breathable and doesn't spread, and to top it all, Corpollywood shamelessly pretends that the United Slums of America's homelessness is due to unemployment, instead of the reality of severely underpaid jobs.
Expect more cheap cash grabs like this one following The Joker's box office success.

The writing is atrocious, unimaginative, inconclusive, all over the place, uneducated, unfunny, schlock and whatnot.
The acting is atrocious. All the literate adults are mentally and often physically deficient (nearly as much the former as our illiterate IMDb censors/parasites.) For the lolz that never come. The cast portray them as ridiculously as humanly possible, way beyond over-the-top. Not to mention they are inarticulate and often unintelligible.
The pace and the tone are atrocious. Half the scenes are filler, repeated ad nauseam. Obviously, boring. Most the dialogue consist of the ramblings of airheads. Obviously, boring.
The humour is atrocious. The film clearly tries to be a comedy, yet its few gags were old in 1910. The director reiterates them ad nauseam as well. Whoever dozes off (expectedly most viewers) will still enjoy them not.
Three points for the pretty pictures (costumes, machines, period sets,) and for a promising young actress who played her cards right.

Heavily inspired by 12 Monkeys and by Terminator, with the T800 seen as the good guy by the makers.
My rating points go to the gimmick and the technique.
The gimmick is about showing a character, and the world surrounding him, every 9 years, over a span of 37 years. Besides the technology and the physical aging, we are treated to the filming/editing techniques and resulting atmospheres of each period. Thus it starts as an original buddy movie from the 80s before moving to grayer pastures.
Sadly, the writing is fully focused on the gimmick. It's all about convenience instead of a tight story. The full picture is unsatisfying, inconsistent, either underdeveloped or nonsensical. Ditto little ideas that are original and cool, like the murder weapon, also impractical, overcomplicated and overkill... Not to mention it's a bio-weapon developed by a physicist stuck in a bootstrap paradox.
