Skycaptain and the World of Tomorrow
 
At least I think that's the title. :D Anyone else see this movie? I assumed no one did because, like me, the previews made them recoil in horror. I came into this movie with very low expecations (but it was free; what can I say?) and came out relieved. As long as you allow yourself to become engrossed in the movie and ignore some small (and occasionally glaring) discrepancies or cheesiness, it's actually a servicably fun movie. There were three or four parts where I actually laughed out loud, and the cgi wasn't distracting (since it was everywhere, it became like a comic book). The action wasn't half bad either, although the movie was practically built of cliches. It's like they took a "big book o' cliches" and just randomly selected different ones from it, then put them into a script format. I did feel tired during much of the movie though, and the seat hurt my ass.

3/5

I really liked the the movie overall. I honestly think that this is exactly the kind of movie that filmmakers would have made in the 30's-50's if they would have had the technology. I do however think that Paltrow was miscast as the reporter though. Don't get me wrong, I usually like her, but I just don't think she played the character with nearly enough attitude. But still definitely recommended.
