Too goddamned orange and blue.

Rating: 2/10 (20 October 2012)

There are many reasons why I hate this film—it's unexciting, far too serious given its dumb premise, full of overblown CGI sequences, and gets far too bogged down with trying to cleverly integrate the fanciful with the factual when it should simply be content with entertaining the viewer—but most of all I hate this film because it is so orange and blue
Not content with p**sing me off with his terribly dull storytelling and ridiculously showy directorial techniques, director Timur Bekmambetov sees fit to tint almost every scene orange, blue, or a combination of the two. Why, I'll never know, but any enjoyment I might possibly have gleaned from this mess was totally ruined by the fact that I was too preoccupied by trying to guess which colour was coming next.
