Dropped yesterday, and looks like another one of Netflix's mid-budget blockbusters, with Charlize Theron & Chiwetel Ejiofor adding some A-list respectability to the crazy. Actually looks like it might be all right, with a bit of humanity in its premise.

This really was such a waste of a good cast. Everyone was kinda sleepwalking through it. And I think it definitively could have benefited from a lighter tone in places, it was so dour and self-serious.

The soundtrack was awful and cheapened the feel of the movie.

If it was just the pilot of a show (which, by the end, it felt like an attempt at a franchise starter), I might have let it off. But as it's most likely a one and done, it was pointless.

This is terrible. Can't believe some magazines and critics were recommending it as a summer blockbuster.
