Darker, dizzying, dragging.

Rating: 7/10 (26 May 2019)

While definitely a darker retelling of the classic story (akin to "Batman Begins"), this film kind of dragged on a bit, partly due to its well paced flashback sequences and its lengthy exposition. Still, for those who are looking for some dizzying action sequences, this is your movie. The hand-to-hand combat was awesome, but it was certainly on a scale of sensory overload (I would not have liked to have even thought about seeing this in 3-D because of this fact). And overall, the relational aspects made a lot of the characters (even the ones from Earth) seem flat and not very human.
But yeah, if you're looking for a summer action flick, this is your best bet.
