Review of Alita: Battle Angel (2019) by Kita_Jin — 06 Apr 2020
A horrible mess of a movie and a waste of some excellent sourcematerial. It tries to shoehorn together several different storylines and cut so many pieces out of each to make them fit into the time alloted that they lose everything of value. Every storyline could have stood on its own and made an excellent movie.
The characters are bereft of nuisance and lacking in the depth that made them original in the source material. They are introduced as cardboard cutouts and with no reason to care about who they are and what they want.
And the worst part is that the movie ends on a dead note; there is no climax, no highlight, no grand finale. And to add to the insult; it ends with "to be continued".
