ADF shout-out. NICE. If he had done a novelization, it would've been interesting to see which version of the script he would've had to work off of.

I'm with you. I really want to appreciate this flick, but great visuals and interesting ideas can only carry a movie so far. The characters, dialogue and convenient logic really drag it down for me. It's cool that other folks can overlook that stuff, but I'm just not able to. It's a shame, coz I hoped subsequent viewings would help me change my mind, but they didn't.

I will say, however, that the score is better than I first thought. I wouldn't call it outstanding, but it's still good.
