Yep. But you know when you can just sense that, behind the scenes, the wheels have just come off the wagon and the studio has gone into headless-chicken mode and made everything worse? Like on JUSTICE LEAGUE and FANTASTIC FOUR. That's what's happened here. There are maybe one or two moments (to be generous) that hint at the film it could have been but otherwise, nothing comes together.

Honestly, I wouldn't recommend even spending two hours watching it; but I guess it's instructive for those interested in how such a promising team can make something so lifeless. I believe even the Director's all-but disowned it.
