Snooze Fest

Rating: 2/10 (10 January 2012)

Reading some of the high marks for this movie leaves me shaking my head. If this is what the world thinks of now as human emotion, I feel sorry for the future. It is at best comic bookish. I assumed it was based on a video game because the characters are so hollow and story void of any real human emotion. I can appreciate the stylization of some of the scenes, particularly the fight scenes, and the winter forest scene at the end, and some of it is interesting to look at (after all, I made it through the whole stupid thing), but in the end I didn't care at all since there was not one redeemable quality in any of them. Mainly, I watched this movie because I read Spike Lee was doing a remake. I hope it's better than this drivel.
