Clichéd, horrible 'comic relief' and mainly poor action with zero excitement.

Rating: 4/10 (8 September 2017)

It's sad that so many obviously talented people contributed to this film considering it's so dire. The fact it's made so much money shows that poorly made teenager centric films obviously have a huge audience.
The script is shockingly clichéd and poorly written with many characters that wouldn't be out of place in a below average Video Game ie terrible. Maybe that's intentional as many scenes resemble the cut-scenes in a video game, especially the "bad guy's" scenes. That bodes badly for the future of cinema. The acting follows suit.
Surprisingly for the budget, too many effects look fake and cheesy. Even the large city crowds fail to convince it's real.
As for the fight choreography, it's American so expect more edits than punches. Except of course when it's full CGI complete with slow-mo. When will directors and editors learn!
It's not all bad. There are the usual cgi influenced battles, which obviously talented people have worked on. They must however feel disappointed when the see their work in the completed movie.
I love decent action films, unfortunately this isn't close to decent. Slow, clichéd, horrible 'comic relief' and mainly poor action with zero excitement. However, males who've just hit puberty will probably love it. After all, they've obviously voted in droves!
