Painfully dumb, but pretty to look at
21 April 2023
I was looking forward to this as I quite enjoyed the first one.

Oh dear, oh dear.

This film is an utter mess.

The script and screenplay are just plain stupid and all over the place. I swear this makes Armageddon feel like a factual documentary in comparison.

Also, it seems like an editing nightmare. The pacing is so erratic and coherence is almost nonexistent at times.

I did have to giggle at the repeated pro-China/anti-west digs throughout the film. Quite silly.

The one saving grace are the special effects and action. They are spectacular at times.

A good example of this is the drone attack on the space bridge. It really is amazing.

It's all for nothing though, as despite how good it looks, you can't escape the sheer stupidity of the story.
