No Chemistry Between Leads

Rating: 1/10 (23 December 2015)

I have seldom seen a film where the male and female leads had as little chemistry. They seemed totally bored with each other, and only managed a half-hearted hug to set up a Harrison Ford line ending with "... hug later." If they had been able to act, perhaps they might have convinced the audience that there was some attraction, but since they couldn't act, they didn't convince. And speaking of chemistry, what happened to having a little bit of science in a science fiction movie? They happily travel at the speed of light, bouncing off trees and rocks, as they head through space. Einstein's general relativity is celebrating its 100th anniversary, but the script writers seem to be ignorant of anything remotely related to the actual science of time, space or advanced weaponry.
