Future World

Whoever was the director and cinematographer here needs to find new lines of work - this was truly terrible....

One could try to find out, what caused this to go south. And I don't mean literally obviously. Was it too many people getting involved in the production/script? Was the main idea good, but somehow something happened while translating for the big screen? If you are really interested in this, you will not find an answer here. Actually I will make the point that there are worse movies out there. Which doesn't make this good by any stretch of imagination (and imagination you will need).

But just goodies like having Milla Jovovich and James Franco in it, is almost worth watching it. The action is ok or even decent for the budget this has. One of the main problems is though that the main character is almost derived completely of any charisma. But that is not all, the cliches come flying in and weird things get thrown at the viewer for good measure. Or is it bad measure? Whatever the case, you will have to have a very low expactation and a very high love (no pun intended) for Science Fiction movies .. if that comes together you may have more fun then most people. Otherwise it probably is wise to steer clear of this

The only reason why I gave 1 star is because there was no way to give negative star in the rating system.

Can't believe how poor storyline and bad directing can make good actors / actresses can appear over acting.

I was keep on thiniking there might be a hidden plot and kept watching. BAD mistake. Totally waisted my time.

REVIEW - FUTURE WORLD

Occasionally white scrolling through and looking at the films available I read the synopsis of a film and wonder what it's like. Now we all know someone somewhere has the job of writing a synopsis and has to make even Sausage Party sound interesting.

Then I saw who was in this film, James Franko, Lucy Liu, Milla Jovovich and Snoop Dogg!!!!

I know!!! At this point I thought WOW an undiscovered 10 out of 10 and 90+ minutes of sheer screen enjoyment!!!

I have never been so wrong, embarrassing for the actors, degrading even, I bet this film won't even be on their resumes.

Boring beyond belief, don't waste your money or time, go and watch paint dry it's far more interesting than this.

Rating 3 out of 10

I really wanted to like this film, and give it a fair chance with such a great cast (although I feel this was Milla Jovovich's worst acting to date), but it failed.

The score was annoying start to finish. The washed out, dim and faded cinematography was the worst I've seen. The directing was ok in some areas, terrible in others - especially the cheesy fade-out/fad-ins. The writing was all over the place and I'm shocked that with 19 producers attached to this project, not once questioned the convoluted screenplay with major plot issues and roller coaster scenes. How difficult was it to alter the fact that Prince walked for days to the drug den with an injured Ash, then days later the bikers all show up? Don't get me started on Ash and Rosie's little ridiculous session in the cell.

This film did have its short lived entertaining moments, especially with Snoop Dogg and the post credits scene and some decent location visuals, but it was still an embarrassment to the films it was trying to play homage to.

A very generous 3/10 from me.
