Like watching a bad video game for 2 hours

Rating: 2/10 (6 January 2014)

Absolutely hated this. Some parts of the story line were pretty good, but the special effects and battle scenes were incredibly amateurish and over done. Years ago, I had a game called Rock 'em, Sock 'em Robots. This movie reminded me of that game. On and on, and just when you think it's over, there's more of the same. Just badly done special effects, trying to paper over the lack of any real substance. Especially bad is the tornado scene. In 1939, they depicted a tornado better in the Wizard of Oz than they did in this movie. As for the acting -- this movie doesn't require great acting. I thought everyone handled their parts fairly well. And Henry Cavill did a reasonably good job. He certainly has the looks. But, I wouldn't recommend this movie to anyone.
