If you want an original not remade, not sequel, prequel, origin story, super hero film, then this is a good place to start. The film gets five stars at least for not being one of the aforementioned.
Where do the other two stars come from. Film is visually stunning and sound track is good. Agrievences because of the plot twist baffle somewhat, just because the twist effectively doesn't give you the soppy happy fairytale ending you were after. The acting of the protagonist as the film culminates is subtley very good.
To be clear some of the acting isnt great, the film is a bit slow in places. In the grand scheme and benchmark of todays modern crapics, this is a classic, on its own could be better.
Some good acting, tackling a sad and unfortunatley very real topic that doesnt give you the happy ending you want, but at least its story worth listening to.

Good action scenes, which is to be expected of these kind of films. Why the 3 stars, well a common issue with these types of modern film, just missing some good writing. As with other reviews, this is just a hollow film, missing a soul, a good story or anything to get a vested interest in. If you have seen matrix reloaded and the babbling ergo, possible outcomes of an outcome, then that kind of sums up this film. Trying to be smart, but not making any sense (possibly this review is the same). Best way to sum up this film. Lastly how is this part one..... of what could be many, the story could be told in an hour. Ah I miss a good story, it's no rogue nation, which was great.
Started out at 8 and then they just kept going with the contious cliche and cringe. If it had been another 20 minutes it could have been as low as 3.
Many have already said it, turn off your brain and follow the science, where have we heard that before. The film is what it is, action, epic CGI and fast paced, dont ask questions, ignore the not so subtle woke rubbish.
Independence day, meets edge of tomorrow, meets war of the worlds, its all mashed in there.
