I know this is getting some poor reviews, but I loved it. The FX were absolutely outstanding, and while there is some shakey cam stuff, there are also several slowed FX shots that seem completely new to film and made my jaw drop... If you liked the tech of District 9 and if you liked the FX action in District 9/Serenity/Prometheus and a number of other recent sci-fi films, this movie is stuffed full of that kind of action... Lots of action, drags very little.. Great dystopian vision by the writer/director imo, and a solid (despite less than original) plot. Great somewhat believable characters although Foster is a little over the top (but still a good villain) an Sharlto Copley (from D9) is a fantastic bad guy.
My favorite action movie of the summer, the FX and look of the film are so good they outshine any of the bad.
5 star Sci-Fi movie.
