this video game had too many product placements

Rating: Null/10 (15 November 2005)

i agree with previous posters that the effects, while okay in some parts, in others made me feel like i was watching a video game, also that this film was littered with too many ads, and i like converse all-stars. the robots look pretty decent up close, but from the opening street scene where they are interacting with people they look drawn on, ditto all the tunnels the cars scenes and the entire chicago skyline. from what i understand, george lucas was the first to cross the barrier (phantom menace as well as clones and sith were all -at least- 50% computer generated, meaning they have more in common with "finding nemo" and "toy story" that the original trilogy -or any other movie one would reasonably call "live action" for that matter-) but even though i am no apologist for the recent star wars films, he pulled it off better than this flick did.
