David J @RT79522248 1d It was a good plot. Good picture, the acting was also very good. Hope they finish the series.. They didnt market it very good. I feel like if more people watched it they would of had a better turnout and made alot more money but they didn't sell the movie very good. See more Chris S @Janomi 2d Mortal Engines has plenty to like because the central idea is fantastic. Giant mobile cities hunting and consuming smaller towns is weird, imaginative, and instantly cinematic. London on wheels, airships, trading towns, machinery, scavenger culture, and post-apocalyptic geography give the movie a huge visual identity. Hera Hilmar gives the story its strongest emotional thread as Hester Shaw. Her scars, anger, trauma, and revenge mission make her stand out inside a very effects-heavy movie. Shrike is also one of the more memorable pieces, bringing a tragic, darker edge through his connection to Hester. The problem is that the movie throws too much at the audience: moving cities, class conflict, ancient technology, revenge, romance, air battles, corruption, and mythology. The world is interesting, but the storytelling feels crowded. It has potential, but it feels more like a franchise starter than a complete film. See more Madam D @Madam1948 2d Great special effects. Imagine the entire city of London coming at you for capture? See more MC R @RT91491190 5d I though let's give this movie a chance for a rewatch. I was really curious about this, because I don't remember much about this movie. The premise is interesting, huge driving cities in a future apocalypse waste land. Interesting story and world! But to be honest this movie didn't stuck the landing, it missed something. But can't put really my finger on it!

Billy C Jr. See more Martin F @stulle Jul 23 Love the world building, the wandering cities act as predators and a shallow metaphor for global war. The story is a bit all over the place but leaves sufficient of the table to explore the universe further and go beyond big Euro Wheely Capitals See more Read all reviews
