7/10
I enjoyed it
24 March 2017
It's pretty odd how the ratings for this movie here aren't that high, but there actually are a lot of positive reviews. I guess I'm with the people who genuinely enjoyed it, even though it wasn't great. I think it's mostly because of how outright beautiful this film looks. I mean, the way everything is shot just makes it look authentic and it seems to be a great tribute to the old film serials. Granted, I don't think I've ever really seen any of those, but this certainly looks faithful. Anyway, this movie begins with giant robots appearing (always a good start) and people investigating to see where they came from.

I admit that the dialogue isn't that good, but there really are some pretty good characters in this. I really did find myself rooting for the relationship between the male and female lead. The way they bonded was actually quite cute. I think the film's length was good, even though the pacing could have been better. I was glad I saw it and even though I would not quite recommend it, it was enjoyable. It's not that great of a story but for me it was a fun little film that was at least above average. It had pretty creative ideas even if they weren't executed that well. ***
