Sky Captain and the World of Tomorrow

Finally saw this yesterday. It was an interesting idea - executed not so interestingly. For an action movie, it felt quite slow. Gwyneth Paltrow was wrongly cast and also irritating - everyone in our audience cheered when she got knocked out. The dynamic totally changed when Anjelina Jolie stepped onto the screen, but it was too little, too late. The idea of playing out like an old movie started out ambitiously, but as the movie progressed, stupid things like waking up naked or cursing or talking about running around on each other (a TON of bickering) ruined any consistency of the old movie feel.

Overall, it was midly entertaining but if you haven't seen it and still want to, DOLLAR it.
