It's a movie without any identity of its own as it plucks scenes from a half dozen other movies from Avatar to Serenity to Gladiator, and of course Star Wars. The costumes look like something from a high school production.
The dialogue is equally bad, the kind where you feel embarrassed when someone walks in to the room and hears what you're watching. Plot? It's equally bad. At one point they are digging trenches to "surprise" the enemy?? How do trenches do that against an enemy from the sky?
Then there's the endless slow motion scenes. It's an effective technique but the movie can't go five minutes without using it.
And if that's not reason enough, how about a coal powered spaceship? No joke. Lol.

I recently watched the TV series 1899 and was thoroughly impressed by its intriguing and original plot. The show kept me guessing and on the edge of my seat from start to finish, and I was truly sad when it was unexpectedly cancelled amid unfounded rumors of plagiarism.
The author whining about plagiarism was gold digging and I don't know if that was a factor in its cancellation or not, but it shouldn't be. Just because they used pyramid shapes and so on in the series hardly constitutes plagiarism.
The show followed a group of immigrants traveling to America on a steamboat at the turn of the century. Each episode revealed new twists and turns, and the characters were complex and well-developed. The acting was top-notch and the production values were high.
Despite the cancellation of the show, I highly recommend checking out 1899. It was an excellent series that kept me guessing until the very end. It's a shame that it was cut short, but I hope that the talented cast and crew will continue to create new and exciting content in the future.

I liked her in orphan black and despite my misgivings, I gave it a try. All I can say is that it is complete garbage. Poor writing, poor acting and the first episode is way drawn out to long. Probably for the insertion of woke ideas, but still , too much. I'd be embarrassed to be caught watching this mess. I thought it might be ok for eight or nine year old viewers but that's it.
