It was nice to see some old characters

Rating: 3/10 (12 March 2019)

The technical aspects of the movie was cool - the lighting, the action, even the CGI was actually pretty awesome. It was great seeing the de-aged versions of some of my old favorite characters and even the side characters in the movie were pretty well written - but Carol herself was just very poorly written and acted. The movie tried hard to be emotional - but Carol was missing a human aspect to draw me in. Maybe it was her acting, maybe it was her writing, maybe it was a bit of both. Last critique, the plot twist was so underwhelming I couldn't enjoy it. And it didn't help that I was able to predict every scene before it even began. I can predict most movies, but not as reliably as this one, and that was a bit of a let down. No emotion, no surprise, great special affects, though, and the side characters were cool.
