I really looked forward to this one as I love Luc Besson's work (especially The Fifth Element). I even planned on zipping down to Altamonte Springs to see it in the Dolby Vision theater there (high dynamic range projection, Dolby ATMOS surround + ceiling sound, recliners - it's awesome!) but the film came and went before I could get there. I caught it in The Villages and the visuals did not disappoint. The story and characters on the other hand...
Well, I'll rent it and give it another go and see if I can think more charitably about it. It wasn't quite the world-class level of dumbness achieved by Geostorm (which also had great visuals combined with a stupid story, cliché characters, poor dialog and pretty bad acting), but it was close.
