Disappointment of the year

Rating: 4/10 (27 November 2016)

I'm real sad to say it but this movie is a complete letdown.
The biggest problem of this movie is that the pacing is all wrong, the introduction gets an absurd amount of screen time. The real story only starts about halfway through the movie.
The epilogue also drags on way too long.
The main characters are mostly shallow and cliché. The acting is good but the script just isn't up to par.
It just all seems so forced how the group of main characters gets together for their adventure.
It's such a shame. The setting is wonderful, the actors are wonderful (especially Colin Farrell), the special effects are beautiful,.... The script just doesn't connect this into a good movie.
The climax feels way too rushed and short. The revelation at the end has no emotional impact or impact on the story.
It just feels like they are holding out on a good story and sprinkling it over multiple movies and cramming them full of scenes that do not progress the plot or character development in any way.
Sorry guys, wish I had better news.
