After 4 viewings over nearly a decade...

Rating: 4/10 (8 January 2019)

I've come to the consensus that as beautiful the world looks, there is no story that's in any way original.
It was hard to ignore the hype but this movie is all style and no substance, with weird and obtuse being mistaken for creativity and weird blue native American ceremonies and bonding rituals in place of character development. In the end we end up with characters we don't care much for and a generic "humans are evil" plot.
I promise I really really wanted to like it, more than anything. But sadly underneath all of the pretty CGI fx it's just like a McDonald's happy meal, cheap and bland. Highly disappointing.
