Visually stunning film

Rating: 8/10 (5 January 2015)

Visually stunning film - widescale, aesthetic, unhurried and slightly aloof, by it's style bringing reminiscences of "Lawrence of Arabia" and "2001: A Space Odyssey". Perhaps the visual part, the "atmosphere", obscures the story and characters, however the story itself is pretty intriguing, and the characters are interesting. Avoidance of the excessive dynamics is an advantage - this is what clearly distinguishes "Oblivion" among the modern sci-fi genre, separating the thoughtful viewer from an emotions consumer, and giving to the first one time to reflect, and to the second one time to get bored and disappointed. That, in general, is well. Any true art must be creative expression and have its audience, rather than try to please everyone by sacrificing sincerity and quality. 8 out of 10.
