As many others rightly pointed out, this is a great concept for a movie, and frankly, given the right funding and some attention to detail, it would have been a great watch, but it really wasn't and therefore it isn't a 'great watch'!
There isn't much to say about the first half of the movie other than there are a few laughs, as well as the absolute minimum character building. Then it goes rapidly downhill with some ultra corny scenes and finally concludes with a blast of nothingness! The special effects are okay sometimes and should serve as a reminder that skimping on costs for CGI can do more harm than good.
The primary cast were, and still are, great actors but their efforts couldn't make up for the rest of the cast, I don't want to use the word mediocre for some of them because that would be too generous. Although, in any actors defense comes the inevitable script and direction, so who knows if they were really that bad or were just forced to be that bad.
Synopsis: Having watched it all the way through I have to state that I am not sorry that I stuck with it, there was enough entertainment in it to warrant giving it a full view. There are some punchy lines and for the most part it is watchable.
