Jupiter Ascending was okay. I think it's meant for the teen demographic. I'll admit I want to go see it again for the camera work. The crew set up six cameras, and they had the actors on wires with green screen. Then clipped the action scenes later.

Also, I think the movie would be great fanfic fodder. We're really not told much about this alien society. Or about the different factions after Jupiter, who either want to kill her, or protect her, or use her for their benefit. She's the genetic 'reincarnation' of a murdered queen, hence all the fuss over her.

Anyway, I'd recommend going to see it, but wait until it's at the discount theater.

Now I want to go see "Mortdecai" again. The one with Johnny Depp and Gwyneth Paltrow. It has that screwball comedy style from the 30s, like "His Girl Friday" but it's also sort of action adventure. Really great, even though I saw the plot twist coming. I would pay full price to see it again.
