Well, John, humans _are_ pretty awful. Or so concludes this
increasingly misanthropic old dude.

I'll give the movie a pass for another reason. Beneath all the
hype, I suspect, is just another boring special-effects-driven
fantasy. What ever happened to old-fashioned, realistic
character-driven cinema?

But then again, I suppose I'm showing my age.
