Most beautiful, spectacular, epic movie I've seen in a long time. They've built an entire incredibly unique world for this movie. Everything on screen is gigantic and breathtakingly grand in scale. It looked like a live action Final Fantasy game.
I loved that it was a story where we didn't really know where the main characters were headed and so it's unpredictable where the story's going to end up. And I appreciate that this is a story that takes itself seriously, unlike certain other big movies these days that keep trying way too hard to be funny, by constantly sticking in forced comedy.
And the music is beautiful, continuing Tom Holkenborg's streak as one of the best film composers today. Everything he's done that I've heard has been great.
And the lead actress has a very unique sounding, soothing voice. I liked hearing her speak.
If I had to complain about anything, it's that the couple of hand-to-hand combat/sword fighting sequences were hurt by some overly choppy editing. Hollywood action directors, please learn to hold your shots during fight scenes. Quit cutting every split second. But anyway, those couple of fights weren't the focus here though, to be fair. This movie was all about the vehicular action, tanks, planes, and such, which all looked spectacular. I'd say this looked better than anything the last couple of Star Wars movies have been doing.
And ignore the rotten critics. Ignore the wannabe critics as well, the ones who've been whining and complaining about seemingly every movie for the past couple of years except Disney/Marvel, just because that's the trend these days.
