CoolMaster Posted December 4, 2005 Posted December 4, 2005 Ok I went to see this movie....oh about a couple of hours ago, expecting it to be ya know, NOT excellent but not terrible Ok DO NOT WASTE your money Im going to be honest, I hardly understood everything, perhaps if I had watched the show (which honestly I dont ever remember it coming on), but I dont understand alot of stuff in the movie, The characters talk so monotone with ABSOLUTLY no expression in their voices, it sounds like their constipated or something. And some stuff is just retarded, like one girl has hands on her feet aswell to help her "move better", ok wouldnt that kinda be bad, i mean walking on your hands would be painful. The Special effects are cool I must admit. and I must admit, Like new girl on my list of girls that I honestly think look the best, and that'd be Charlize Theron in this movie (ADIOS KATIE HOLMES) She is quite stunning I must say, the black hair looks really good on her. but that aside it's a flop, horrible movie dont go see or it waste ur time, unless ur a fan of the series Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
BionicSniper Posted December 4, 2005 Posted December 4, 2005 On the contrair i found the movie aswome It had multiple plot turns and a good mix of action. Id say go see it ! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
CoolMaster Posted December 4, 2005 Posted December 4, 2005 I guess there are very many opinions for this movie NOW since everyone knows I love "the island" by far my favorite movie of all time and this had alot of futuristic stuff (i like futuristic movies, they always intrest me) that part was cool and well she's really a beautiful girl the story was interesting guys it's not that the story sucked, its how they threw it together, a whole show series in 1.5 hours........doubtfull gonna work but I guess take bionicsnipers suggestion and go see it. I do take back at being how horrible it was, I have high expectations for alot of movies, but for a popcorn flick it wasnt bad. still how they threw the story together, I still want to vomit on that part action wise yes that was good i forgot about that Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Verran Posted December 4, 2005 Posted December 4, 2005 NOW since everyone knows I love "the island" by far my favorite movie of all time 589762[/snapback] Didn't that movie tank hard? Like real hard? I remember it being in the theaters for like 45 seconds.... I'm skeptical about Aeon though. The animated series was great because it had such a sick sense of humor to it. I just don't see that carrying over in a live action movie starring Charlize. She hot, like super hot, but I just don't see her doing a good Aeon. I'll be waiting for video on this one...

General912 Posted December 4, 2005 Posted December 4, 2005 Im not a fan of the original anime cult version. However I did go and see it, I thought it was fairly good. Not oscer material but still good. . Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tomatosauce Posted December 4, 2005 Posted December 4, 2005 perhaps if I had watched the show (which honestly I dont ever remember it coming on) Its kinda hard to describe the show. It was VERY original. But catchy at the same time. Kind of an anime soap with lots of murder. Anyhow, the chick with hands for feet was also in the series. I'm sure thats why they included her. Aside from that I dont expect that most will like it because the show wasnt super popular. It came on TV at like 1 or 2am on MTVs liquid television. I for one really want to see it though and hope I like it. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
hardnrg Posted December 4, 2005 Posted December 4, 2005 if you didn't watch the animated series then it's kinda understandable that you wouldn't get the movie... i absolutely loved the series... and i have a dvd of it...

CelticaFLM Posted December 4, 2005 Posted December 4, 2005 I loved the movie...I watched the series...I think you kinda need to have watched the cartoon series..or at least know a little bit about it before you see the movie. It was a bit drawn out IMO....but the story was awesome....they did a really good job with it. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

IMO they did the best that they could do. With animation, they could pretty much do what they wanted... when it is live people, things get more complicated and costly. I still think they could have picked someone that better "fit" the role of Aeon. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
