After watching Caprica this is quite a letdown. It seemed that half the movie was CGI, the other half top-gun-ish a boy and his machine.
Oh yeah, boys and girls shower together! Every adolescent boys' wet dream. Character development? Uh not really. If I recall correctly Uncle Scrooge comics of the 1950's had more of such.
But not to be a total loss, the CGI was rather good.

The main character, the flesh and blood one, the castrated one, is the epitome of modern western man's nadir. He mumbles, he suffers, he exudes sad puppy. Every other character in this film had some spark, some life and an actual personality.
I felt for the (can't even remember his name (ICERHN)) man's soon to be ex-wife. She was alive, had a personality. I watched this piece of dreck all the way through to the limp end expecting a surprise; he's actually a kung fu master practicing calm (nope his 'calm' was comatose). Anything would do to quell the idea that such a beaten creature actually roams the earth.
Every close-up of this guys face (and there were way too many such) was the equivalent interest to me of a long stare at over-cooked oatmeal - ugh. This film is the most nauseous portrayal of a man I have seen ever. A two pound Chihuahua has more balls and maleness. The ICERHN entity is but a dead man walking.

I love a good idea with action, nice men and women who are faithful to their character. In the U.S. I've have mostly given up on TV and movies, the writers here seem to be on a mission to prove their bona fide regarding any and all of the 'conscious raising' topics from Abortion to Zebra rights.
I'm in season 4 now, and so far there's no token minority, token gay, token black or even simulated sex scenes. The characters use typical English grammar with charming British slang like 'awright mate' or some such. There's some personal angle between the geek and the blonde which by U.S. standards would be too subtle. But this tension is left for the audience to wonder about, no scene of an epiphany of uncontrolled lust with groaning and grunting for five minutes. Thank you all.
Anyway British ladies are so enjoyable to watch too.
