In an age where blockbusters are either sequels, reboots or part of a cinematic universe, it is absolutely refreshing to witness an ambitious original epic. But this...this was not the way to do it. Before you comment "this had so many good ideas though!" I am not reviewing a conceptualised thesis of what the film could've been, I am simply critiquing what was shown to me in the film. It is not my fault that The Wachowski's primarily focused on world building rather than constructing a cohesive story. The story...well...is about Jupiter Jones who discovers she has intergalactic ancestry that dictates her as the rightful owner of Earth. A powerful family attempt to force her to abdicate those rights so that they can harvest people to fuel their genetic industry. C'mon now, give me credit for outlining the plot in two sentences, because sweet lord you need to write a paragraph to explain the surface of the plot. Overstuffed is an understatement, and that will always be The Wachowski's downfall with every film they produce. Their imagination takes over, as if a child was drawing a house and quickly turns it into a fire-breathing apple. Less is more, especially considering the constraints of a restricted runtime and budget. Visually impeccable, I will say that. The futuristic technology, regal architecture and explosive chaos looked majestic. But, when you recruit Mila Kunis and Channing Tatum as your two lead actors, expect chemistry thinner than hydrochloric acid. They were terrible! Munis looked confused all the time and Tatum lacked any emotion. Then we come to Redmayne as one of the antagonists. I...just feel sorry for him. He created life and most certainly destroyed it, as well as his acting credibility. The screenplay was atrocious. Injecting a forced romance amid dialogue that only acts as exposition and plot detailing. There's no time for character development, no time at all! Jupiter needs to ascend and save the cosmos or something. Not a galactic atrocity, but easily their weakest film.

I seem to be one of the very few people who loved this movie. The eternal oddball, that's me. I didn't like Mila Kunis much, to be honest. I never do. She's one of those actresses who wear the same face from the beginning to the end of amovie (in every movie), but I loved everything else. Visually, it must be one of the most beautiful movies I have ever seen. The costumes, the spaceships, the action scenes, the quirky little details, the photography... everything is magnificent. Amazing: a love story in a sci-fi movie! Amazing: eye candy for female viewers in a sci-fi movie! Amazing: Sean Bean makes it all the way to the end of the movie without being gruesomely slaughtered! I am not in any way enthusiastic about royals and royalty and all that crap, but here it works the same way it works in traditional fairytales. The whole plot of the movie is very much a traditional fairytale, Cinderella becomes a princess, the three adversaries, etc... It may not work for some, but it does or me. Lots of secondary characters that stand out as truly interesting and memorable, unlike so many movies where one or two great characters float in a void of appalling acting. I didn't know Eddie Redmayne before this movie and I know many ridiculed his performance here, but it made a perfectly convincing creepy villain for me. It is a movie that has its own strange purity, and courage too, using traditional narrative shapes that don't belong to the genre, weaving them together with elements of fantasy and comedy and romance... I suppose it could not work in this cynical time. I am sorry that it did so badly because I would have loved to spend more time in this universe, in a sequel (or two). It is such a different and colourful take on Sci-fi, a genre in which so many movies, books and series are basically interchangeable.

Went to see this with my friends who were hyped to view it. We ended up leaving halfway through out of anger to watch the 2015 Spongebob Movie instead. May I add that the Spongebob movie was about one hundred times more entertaining than this film. Not saying that the Spongebob movie was high art, we just got more enjoyment with our money. Would not recommend, even if it was free. Disappointing and lack-luster to say the least.
