Overhyped

Rating: 7/10 (30 March 2019)

In fairness, I saw this in 2019 and not 1999. I'm sure I'm seeing this through a different lens than people that saw it and reviewed it 20 years prior. For me, the last 30 - 45 minutes are brilliant. Fast paced, action packed and deliver some fantastic visuals. The rest of the film however, is meh. I feel like the story is attempting to be deep and meaningful but it really falls flat for me. The last 1/4 + of the film brings the rating up to a 7 but really, prior to that, it was closer to a 5.
