Overall 8/10
A workmate said that he was asleep for most of this movie. Everyone else I spoke with however, loved it!
It starts with a small recap of the previous movie as it has been a number of years since that installment.
The special effects are why this movie works. If it had been a story about conflict between human nations, it would be quite ordinary and could be likened to similar events in other movies. However, this definitely is not. It is very beautiful, scenic and visually disturbing with the ugly side of conflict.
Aspects to the story are not very original and a little predictable. But are nonetheless done well and carried by the visual effects.
Some of the characters are very memorable with notable acting. But being that alot of the cast are young people, you can expect a few scenes to be a little cringe. Plus the accents are a little strange to listen to. But if that was the intention for alien accents, then well done!
If you are fascinated by alien worlds with conflict, then this movie is for you! Otherwise, wait for the small screen and watch it at your leisure! It is a long movie and almost feels like a TV mini series back to back.
Enjoy!
