Review of Mortal Engines (2018) by Lorenzo M — 16 Dec 2018
This is an enjoyable epic that gives a sizable adventure that highlights the fantasy sub-genre of steampunk (based on a series of novels) with fantastic visual designs, some engaging CGI-infused action (with opening scene being the best and particular impressive in IMAX 3D) and a very nifty nomadic resurrected warrior cyborg that makes it all the more watchable.
But it's also a missed opportunity as its narrative is so derivative to the point of being severely predicable at nearly every turn and characters so generic that renders almost any decent performances here flat in this visually dazzling spectacle.
