Bryce Dallas Howard is Horrible
12 February 2024
I want to be fair, Bryce Dallas Howard does NOT totally ruin this movie, even without her very minimal acting skills, the movie is still one big steaming pile. Howard has one "deer in the headlights" expression that she uses to convey any response. Using her to carry an entire movie is just mental cruelty - to her and to the audience.

The script is one big convoluted trainwreck. Is it an action movie? Romance? Political Satire? Ultimately it dosent really matter, after two plus hours the audience just wants it to be over. Anytime the action slows, which it does every three minutes, they toss in some preposterious special effects. The movie is overwhelmed by these not so special effects.

And, please while they are heavily featured in the trailers, both Henry Cavill and John Cena appear in only a few short scenes throughout this overlong movie.
