STORY:
- The story in this movie was the weakest point. You just can't expect for us to relate and to feel something for some characters or even the whole world ( movie world ) if you don't give us a big backstory. It's simple as that. The whole formula was show a main character ( give him 1 minute time for the backstory ) then switch to the current events. That doesn't work. And ofcourse, we didn't care about those characters. The same goes for the plot of this movie. They filled ( writters ) the movie with events that occure the main characters, bad events and espect for us to find that intresting. There 3 books as I see for this movie and I can presume that the writers took all of the good things from those and put it in one place. That will make your audience to not know what the heck is going on.
- Directing/Editing/Music/Costumography
The director showed us a stunning world. With a lot of details. Visually i enjoyed this movie. And with all that music going in the background, it was just phenomenal in some scenes. But again, NO CONNECTION TO THE STORY ! And about the costumes. They were believable, like they were from that world.
- Hera, Hugo and Robert had a decent performance. But Sarah Peirse, Jihae and Menik Gooneratne made me cringe so much ( Sarah the most ).
