Jupiter Ascending (2015)
Sean Bean Doesn't Die...
The universe was great. Nice hierarchic with the royal universal family, nice colors, nice space ships. Only location that set me of was the attempt at a comic relief with the harry potter esque bureaucratic bullshit that was going on in the capitol. Story however... completely chaotic. The wacakokikaka brothers should have created the universe and left the story to a book writer of some sort. They where utter shite on the story part. Dialogues are crap, the "heroine" is stupid and the worst thing about it all, none of the good guys die, especially Sean Bean. I mean come on! Sean Bean Always dies! Always! Huge let down. not worth the ticket price. Should have spent all that money on donuts instead.
Edge of Tomorrow (2014)
Child friendly Hollywoodized adaptation of a book.
I read "All you Need is Kill" before i watched the movie. For those who do not know, the movie is based on "All you Need is Kill". While the original and the movie features similarities, it is only in the character idea and parts of the story. Compared to one another, the Movie is a dumbed down Hollywoodized family friendly smudge filled with predictable everything. I do get that change is necessary at times when going from novel to film as you have to fit a the in a 3 hour-ish format. The changes in this film however is absolutely bonkers, removing almost everything of its originality and charm. Had it not had a connection to the book i might have given it a 3 or 4 but as I consider this a slaughter of an amazing story i give it a 2 (now I am being kind).
