The line near the beginning that the female scientist gives, that you shouldn't worry if it doesn't make sense should be the tagline. But then, it renders so much of the film pointless.

Gimmicky and terribly disappointing despite a great cast and talented director.

Now I'm not one to sniff at filmmaking. OK I am. But I do appreciate the hard work that must go into making a film. There's the set design, the costumes, the graphics and special effects, and the hours that Henry Cavill has clearly spent in the gym.

But I do wonder why they didn't spend some time on a script that created a narrative that grabbed attention, or some direction with pace to it rather than creating shot after shot of m**turbatory aids under the guise of cinema.

I won't go on, unlike Immortals. It's everything that 300 was not. It lacks humour, charm, personality and most surprising, it lacks good action. It's tired and uninspiring and if I'd paid to see I'd be thoroughly annoyed.

I think it's fair to say, if George Lucas had messed up this one he would have well and truly been considered a bigger muppet than Miss Piggy.

Well he didn't, he couldn't really. He has a classic tale at his disposal with the massive advantage of a transformation into one of the best known villains of the 20th Century.

There are some dodgy bits, but we're kind of used to them now and also, nothing as bad as the love story in Clones or Jar Jar in Phantom.

I don't feel the need to go into the ins and outs of the story as there are plenty of you who will doubtless pour over "significance" and whathaveyou. All I will say is thank the maker he came up trumps this time or I would be setting fire to all my Star Wars toys in the back garden.
