This film is one where I wasn't taken in at first, but then I started to get involved as the first act unfolded. Bruce Willis is typical, Milla Jovovich is just fine, Ian Holm is boring, Brion James is okay, Tommy Lister's casting is "dumb as rocks", Gary Oldman is awesome as usual and Chris Tucker's performance is virtually "movie ruining"... Oh and Lee Evans the comedian & Tricky the musician are both in it for no reasons at all. As the film developed through the second act I became aware that any questions I had from the beginning were not gonna be addressed by the movie. Finally, by the third act, the drama at the end is tired and lame "we live in a society" nonsense where all is saved by "love" and our two "hot-bodied" main characters get it on for some reason as the film ends. Two hours of my life I'll never get back! An offensive amount of very dated CGI, hideously miscast characters, stupid character design in some cases, oh so many failed attempts at humour alongside genuinely humourous actors who aren't properly utilised for comedy in the film, forced & contrived love between the obvious breeding pair, the main character's mother keeps calling in the film which feels long every time and is never funny, and overall it's just a very dumb, unfunny, boring & predictable misfire of a movie. However, many of the set designs are pretty awesome, SOME of the CGI was very good for it's time, Gary Oldman never fails to disappoint (even in this garbage movie) and the design of the Mangalores is pretty awesome too. I won't ever be watching this again.
