This is the kind of movie I like to watch to enjoy the visual effects and ignore the terrible dialogue and bad acting, except this time the effects were dull—more of the same unimaginative, oversized destruction we already see too much of—and in many cases distractingly bad. (Why couldn’t they have made that clear in the trailer, like Geostorm?) I’ve seen each and every one of these actors deliver dialogue plausibly (yes, every single one) (okay, maybe not Ioan Gruffudd); why not leave the lines out of the script and let them improvise in between the big, loud scenes of crumbling pixel-cities?
