Review of Jupiter Ascending (2015) by Wirespeed — 08 Feb 2015

In these reviews, I notice two main groups of people - the ones who like a story, and the ones who like the eye candy. If you only like movies that tell a good story, you shouldn't even bother going - the story is pretty simplistic. The special effects, however, were spectacular. I also definitely liked some of the things they ended up doing with the Sci-Fi and how they introduced Jupiter to the greater universe. I also enjoyed how they explained a great deal of the 'aliens' being human while still including alien races. Despite the story being somewhat simplistic, the universe has great potential for expansion though I'm not sure another movie would be a good medium for it. I'd read the book though. In all fairness, despite the former, the movie and the action scenes got a bit tedious at times, but that's not hard to work around.

Solid 3.
