4. I really did like it
Wizard of Oz meets Metropolis meets Saturday afternoon movie serials. Very cool IMO

5. Too late for you now, but...
I thought it sucked. And I rented it thanks to these great comments!

Slow, boring, low on action, and Angelina Jolie's role is more of a cameo.

I'm never listening to you guys ever again.

8. Looks amazing but don't expect the dialog and plot to match
the excellence of the style.

It does capture the feel of the early sci-fi genre with the visuals but the script was horrible.

I'll buy the DVD though.
