This film was a mess.
Pros: I give credit to the production designs being good. Ariana Greenblatt was Good as Tiny Tina. Jack Black was hilarious as the speaking voice for claptrap and this was my 2nd experience at the cinema today.
Cons: The script dialogue was so terrible. Cate Blanchett look weird wearing that wig as Lilith. Jamie Lee Curtis’s Dr. Patricia Tannis was useless. Atlas is a forgotten villain. The action were not directed well and it’s a poor man guardians of the galaxy.
