Wow. This was…bad. Visually stunning but that’s about it. Screenplay was trite and inept. John David Washington was awful. It’s quite frustrating because it could’ve been something more. The production design was so gorgeous and I generally enjoyed the world building. It’s the lack of any character development and the clunky screenplay that’s really dragging this down. What a disappointment.
Also, go home Hans Zimmer. That score was so heavy-handed, it drove me fucking crazy.
Just came out from the cinema with my girlfriend and had the same talking points on the way home. I would not say that it's bad, the world building is awesome but we didn't feel anything for the main characters.
It had too many ideas cramped into 2h running time, and the characters was highly uninteresting and many scenes didn't make sense for the plot.
Dispite the 3rd arc, nothing will change, the status que is kept.
