An Enjoyable Movie. If you love good action then its a Must see!

Rating: 6/10 (31 March 2011)

Before we start let me just say that I'm a sucker for action, fantasy, adventure flicks. It's a love of mine and I was most definitely pleased with all of the actions sequences presented in the movie. The first ten minutes of the movie were done well because the set up of the story was more visual and didn't waste time using dialogue to "lead" the audience. Before I say anything the cinematography and the score were done very well. My favorite scenes were the very first fight scene in the snow and the last fight scene set in the future with the robots.
The acting was watchable. I was skeptical on how the girl from High School Musical and the other girl from SAVED would do playing sexy, tough women but they pulled it off. Many people said that this movie was "every nerds fantasy" to see hot girls, in skimpy clothes, fighting bad guys. Fortunately, the costumes weren't all that skimpy and although all five actresses are very attractive, when the time comes for them to fight it is very believable.
Now like any movie, I do have my inhbitions. There were a lot of holes in the story and when you leave the theatre and ponder the movie, you do say to yourself "wait that didn't make sense". Why is that our main characters dancing is SO great that it distracts any man from from their surroundings? Why did these four girls let this random stranger who they only knew for a couple days talk them into risking their lives for her? If her dancing was great why didn't we get to see any of it? If this fantasy world was meant to be an escape from the torturous reality of this whorehouse, why did she enter it when she did it willingly.....it defeats the purpose of creating a fantasy world.
But of course I went in the theatre clear of all inhibitions and expectations. I freed my mind and allowed myself just to enjoy the movie. I didn't pay money to sit through the whole movie and whisper to my friend everything that doesn't work. I just allowed myself to enjoy what was put on the screen. I did feel like the director wanted to deliver a combination of emotion and action. Unfortunately, the emotional portion of it wasn't all tat convincing.
All in all, it was a fun movie. Just know that when you purchase it on DVD this summer, it'll be one of those films where you skip to all the actions scenes.
