Review of Sky Captain and the World of Tomorrow (2004) by Mike L — 11 Feb 2010

Visually very interesting but the odd, disjointed mix of technology in the movie and the ultimately unsatisfying story does not live up to the viewing.

It does have the alternate universe feel to it plus the purposeful dated look but while it does look cool I just could never get over the whole concept of they are building all these cool gadgets but yet they are still flying propeller planes, granted they could turn into subs but this just heightened oddness.

Personally I have never really cared for Law and Paltrow and this movie emphasized the coldness those two have always left me feeling after seeing one of their movies as I never get much emotion from them or cared about their performance.
