Centenas de anos após a civilização ter sido destruída por um cataclismo, uma jovem misteriosa, Hester Shaw (Hera Hilmar), surge como a única pessoa capaz de parar Londres – agora uma cidadade gigante e predadora sob rodas – de devorar tudo no seu caminho. Selvagem e conduzida intensamente pela memória da mãe, Hester une forças com Tom Natsworthy (Robert Sheehan), um marginal de Londres, juntamente com Anna Fang (Jihae), uma criminosa de perigo com a cabeça a prémio.

Uma grande farsa de proporções colossais refeita com um elenco multicultural, em que o emaranhado de personagens e motivações secundárias impossibilitam manter a atenção na linha dramática principal. E muito menos na experiência emocional dela, que está tão bem esboçada na abertura prometedora. É uma pena, porque o mundo fantástico do filme e a sua riqueza visual não têm limites, e Junkie XL oferece uma grande banda sonora ao estilo do Ben-Hur. É difícil dizer se é falha do argumento, da direção ou de ambos, mas um tal tropeço de Peter Jackson e de toda a equipa do Senhor dos Anéis é uma verdadeira surpresa.

Interesting world, uninteresting movie. London running on tracks through the rest of Europe and devouring smaller towns is quite nice, but unfortunately it is surrounded by an uninteresting story that its director cannot tell attractively. There’s lots of dead-end plot lines, mediocrely shot action and visuals that one moment are breathtaking and a scene later look like something out of a TV series. On top of that, the protagonists are boring, the plot is hackneyed; in fact, I'm quite surprised that this particular banality, which lays out all its trump cards in the opening "city" chase, has anything to do with Peter Jackson. And I'm not happy about it.

Steampunk Star Wars? Dream on. It’s a wannabe soft version of Mad Max, a malnourished Hunger Games, and a crappy copycat of the Wachowski sisters with totally incompetent direction, overstuffed visuals, half-dead actors and a lot of horribly bad scripting. I haven't seen a film this dysfunctional in a long time.

A big, expensive post-apocalyptic fantasy, a mix of multiple films and a dream project for Peter Jackson, who unfortunately only produced it, and that's a shame because if he had taken over directing it would have been much more interesting. Visually the film is solid and all the VFX attractions on screen look nice, there are more than enough interesting ideas and there is always something going on so there is no danger of boredom, thankfully. But I did mind that it was too slick and bloodless, it would definitely have benefited from a dirtier package and it also needed a better villain and more interesting main characters. Those who like films like this could easily give cinema a try. I didn't regret spending my money, but I didn't take away too much from the experience. 60%

The opening scenes of the film promised an excellent spectacle, but... Everything I liked about it soon faded away and the only thing left were dull stares, ineffective play on emotions, frequent racing against time and a Star Wars rip-off, which was only missing Admiral Ackbar’s famous line: "It's a trap!" Otherwise, there was an attack on the Death Star and a duel between the father and son (actually, a daughter), complete with gender equality and multi-cultural interconnectedness under Dalai Lama’s supervision. Not to mention all that self-sacrifice. It's a shame that the creators managed to completely bury the idea which had so much potential.

A film in which nothing at all works. It’s nice that it’s action-packed from start to finish, but the whole thing is absolute chaos. A boring plot and setting, with way too many storylines none of which reach a satisfactory ending. Most actors do not fit into their roles, and to make things even worse, the dialogues are simply pathetic. Whoever at Universal approved the 100-million budget should get themselves checked up. Totally confusing and an undeniable flop.
