Grossed higher than the GDP of 43 countries

Rating: 4/10 (15 April 2015)

This movie could have been anything and it would have made this much money.
They could have written almost any plot and the charismatic collection on screen would have made it good.
It is almost an accomplishment that Joss Whedon and Co. produced this instead.
The general reaction to this spectacle almost made me wonder if I had watched a different movie. Most of my friends seemed to like and the critical reviews were positive enough. Critics and audiences alike seemed to think it had delivered on its promises.
My biggest impression walking away was: "Did half that movie take place on an aircraft carrier? That can fly?" I'll save you the trouble: precisely 70 minutes of this 140 minute film takes place on a flying aircraft carrier. It is so precisely half the movie that I am certain it was done on purpose.
This was an appalling waste of potential in every sense.
