Well it took a long time coming. But its here never the less, considering
the USA release dates were in beginning September.
A minor part of me wanted to see Babylon A.D because of all the
hoopla about the action. The major part wanted to glimpse Vin Diesel,
in action again. What surprises me sometimes is how he manages to take
the movie forward without showing much of an iota of expression whatsoever.
Anyways the movie was trimmed down to about 95 mins, from the original 160 mins about.
Fortunately or unfortunately, for most in the theater the movie just seemed to start and end. To be more precise, there's just too much information to process,
about an apocalyptic future, coupled with religious fanaticism, degradation of society
etc. etc. The 3D was there with all the eye candy and what is required to
make for a good 95 mins. Its not exactly as spectacular as Transformers,
as deep as The Dark Knight, or as emotional as Children of Men.
But if you want to spend your money on some nice entertainment, Babylon A.D.
does work out!
