Massive disappointment

Rating: 5/10 (29 June 2015)

Aaaah, man! I loved District 9. I like Matt Damon, and Jodie Foster is one of my very favourite actresses I was looking forward to this film for ages.
Bitterly disappointed. Oblivion was a slow, meandering old science fiction film that I was happy to let drift along. This, on the other hand, was a bloated, meandering film that just didn't seem to go anywhere interesting. Lots of great ideas, but none of them followed through with any conviction. Dull, obvious have-vs-have-not politics; the usual shaky-cam action sequences; characters I just didn't care about despite the best efforts of Damon & Foster
I don't know. Maybe I'll re-watch it sometime without the expectation, and I'll enjoy it more.
Verdict: Pfft.
