I really want to see this movie. Some of my friends say it's going to be mediocre at best, but in my opinion, they're approaching it from a plot point of view. Looking at the trailer, it looks like any blockbuster action movie, with the exception that there is significant innovation in terms of CG in this film. Critics of the film point out how predictable it looks based on one viewing of the trailer, which is understandable. I won't reveal exactly how predictable it is, since you can check out the trailer through this link.

I've come to accept that some movies are meant to be more "serious" in nature, in a sense that the filmmakers spent a lot of time creating a compelling story. Other movies are just for pure entertainment sake, an example being the Transformer series. People shouldn't necessarily go in with the attitude that every movie should be fine art. Knowing what kind of movie you're going to watch will make the experience more enjoyable.
