Not what I'd hoped for. Peter Jackson was the draw. I knew the cities on wheels was going to be a hard sell for me (just too many logistical improbabilities to let me suspend disbelief). The cast was good. The CGI was spectacular. The warnings for our real world were obvious. But, I wonder if this would have been better as a TV series than a movie. The characters and the plot seemed to be rushed for me, and there seemed so much more to explore before it rushed to its inevitable conclusion. I didn't engage with the characters and the story as I hoped I might. I am going to give this film a 5 (meh) out of 10. [Steampunk SciFi]
