Really Excited!...but left really disappointed

Rating: 4/10 (4 March 2014)

I would never rate this movie as a 1 or 0, because the visuals are simply too amazing to take credit away from the marvelous people who produced them. I personally, however, enjoy seeing more than simply visuals. I found that between the overbearing music playing throughout the movie to the distracting string of constant bad luck, it gives the plot, along with its actors, no credibility whatsoever. There is no worse feeling than watching a movie and not being able to relate to it in any way. Everything was so over-the-top and trying so hard to be the "most intense movie you've ever watched" that it completely missed the mark. I am still amazed that this movie won so many awards beyond the visual ones it received (which it deserved greatly). I still would recommend to people to see the extremely amazing visual effects we are capable of achieving in today's age, but I strongly disagree with all of the praise this film is receiving as a complete package. Depends on what kind of movie-goer you are.
