Did I miss something?

Rating: 3/10 (12 November 2014)

I read all the great reviews about this movie and went to see it on my day off and was really excited. I ended up bored and disappointed. Maybe it's my short attention span but I felt like I spent the whole movie waiting for something to happen. I gave it 3 stars based on the special effects but I am not with the masses in anointing this film as a masterpiece. Too little action, too many meaningless story lines.
If you are hellbent on seeing for yourself, I would recommend the IMAX experience. The special effects are enhanced in that environment.
Maybe I am not smart enough to follow a movie like this. If you're a fan of intense action movies, stay away from this one.
