Acting is not bad, but the storyline is simple, tedious in fact.
I have not read the book, but I hope it is a lot better than this car wreck of a movie.
Anti-Western propaganda permeates throughout this movie - however if you like revisionist history (yes, I am aware that this story is set 1000 years in the future but the post *yawn* apocalyptic future) then please check out this steampunk Star Wars attempt - just it has no soul, likeable/relatable characters or charm to it. Just a bunch of special effects - which were actually very good I must admit - and a hipster view of the world. So all in all rather pretentious and lacking in irony or depth.
