friends won't let friends see... babylon a.d.
I hadn't heard much about this action/adventure/sci-fi/ *yawn*/thriller until reading this post by Fox over at Lazy Eye Theatre... not good.It's generally a really bad sign if both the director and the lead actor of a movie brutally trash it during promotion season. Bad, bad sign.

I also think it's a bad sign when a movie uses the "Requiem for a Dream" theme as its music in the trailer. It's been over played and the quality in films seems to be getting worse. First it was "LOTR: Two Towers" (Excellent)then "Sunshine" (Decent) and now this (Crap). Quite a steady decline.

the previews for Babylon AD made me expect something a lot more original... it totally felt like a cross between Minority Report and the Fifth Element

I saw this as well. Haven't written a thing yet, but movie buff is close - I thought it more like Children of Minority Report, with a dash of A.I. and Blade Runner thrown in for good measure.
Not terribly bad or good, and it even had a few cool visions of the future.
