Review of Æon Flux

Æon Flux (2005)
2/10
Thin dialogue, bad science, and no character development.
12 December 2005
I went into this movie cold, never having seen the MTV series that spawned it. The film completely fails to connect with the viewer. Let's see Aeon's double-life and be treated to some character developing dialogue -- instead, we were thrown headfirst into the action, with no reason whatsoever to care about the outcome. What's more, during the rest of the movie, we're never given a good reason to take one side or another, except for the fact that the villain characters all say villainous things and have apparently villainous motives. The action sequences are not terribly cohesive or believable, either. Overall, there's not much to recommend this movie.
