cyrano: (Coyote Cinema)
Quick MI:AGAIN review.
Holds together pretty well. The supporting cast gets something to do. They don't try to hook anybody up, and the token female is competent and has agency. The set piece in the opera house is pretty impressive. I'm rating it the second best MI:Movie.
cyrano: (Coyote Cinema)
A deftly woven retelling of Pinocchio, RoboCop, and Short Circuit, with a hint of the mortality of Blade Runner, and all of the Phillip K Dick uneasy 'what is humanity' that would entail. They surprised me in a few places, but there were one or two others that I wish they had. I would have liked subtitles, because combining Chappie's accent with voice distortion occasionally rendered him unintelligible.
Four Electric Wags.
