I see people referring to "Fantastic Planet" and other true masterpieces of inventive scifi animation. This show?

To me seemed like an arbitrary incoherent mess.

My son got me watching anime (DoroHeDoro DeathNote Arcane) This thing seems like a bottom of the submissions pile project. Studio Ghibli it is not! Would help if there was way way more setup in the first episode and if there was some semblance of legitimacy to the apparently arbitrary use of native materials jammed into earther tech? Reminds me of that mess "The 100" which had scads of "just because" nonsense gluing it all together.

Wow, saw this passing by and reminded me of how much this film stank on ice! By every metric - a failure. The turgid and unappealing story, the hang dog acting the uninspired film work and locations - A bone tossed to Talia Shire for her work on Rocky stuff to be sure.

One that sticks in your throat . Was so bad another theater goer at our showing stood up mid show and exclaimed "what the hell am I watching??" and hurled her large soft drink towards the screen before stalked out. My friends and myself looked at each other and said "yeah, Why ARE we sitting through this?" And WE LEFT. One of the two worst films I ever paid to see, The other being "Horror Planet" which honestly had more redeeming moments!

My wife is a huge (original) "Predator" fan and we both thought the sequels to date were weak if not just shoddy cash-ins.

THIS however was refreshing, clever, and well crafted. We laughed and whooped on occasion, and she felt it finally delivered what none of the other post original films did - the balance thrills, fun and schlock found in the original.
