I loved how it started. I was pretty pumped as the initial setup promised something epic. Then, honestly, i don't know what the hell happened.
The entire storyline flew off the rails as soon as the protagonist was on the Arrowhead. And it just got worse from there. I would start to grasp what i thought was some coherence. Then, poof, gone.
The acting was decent, the efx were quite good for its budget, the setting very cool. But the story, especially considering the promise, was a huge let down. Not to say that some of the ideas weren't good. The Raaf 'character' was interesting, if inconsistent in his programming...the whole 'time dilation' thing wasn't completely original but i still liked it...the symbiosis between the people and creatures was also kinda neat. But that last part, like a lot of the rest of the movie, was never fully explained. It was just kind of used when it was convenient to the plot.
But worst of all even though there was enough ideas (again, some of them good) in this for 5 movies, this thing actually got boring. How is that possible?
It was 10-15 minutes too long in the last third.
So i usually ask myself to rate a movie based on if i would watch it again. Some movies that leave me confused or like i missed something make me want to see them again to see if i could fill in some of the blanks.
This isn't one of them.
