CGiii Comment

From the maker of the immense Donnie Darko - this sprawling marathon of a film has nothing going for it whatsoever.

Handheld camera work, tedious computer graphics all add to this immature vision of Doomsday.

The problem with this film is that it is already dated, implausible and hugely infantile.

Comic book without the humour.

An immensely big and costly puerile FLOP.
