This is epitome of what the bulk of Marvel films have been for me. It’s not a ‘good’ film, but it is undoubtedly an enjoyable film.
There’s a lot of points you have to accept and just move on. You could easily pick them apart, but you just have to chose to enjoy the film regardless. The most egregious being when a character essentially says “oh by the way this thing happened, and it’ll be essential to how the final act plays out. Here’s some flash backs to earlier points in the film to prove it happened. Despite none of those moments actually being in the film… just take my word that it happened” It’s bad, but if you just accept it an move on. The film is quite enjoyable.
A complete waste of brilliant visuals and world building. (Most of which I expect comes from the manga/anime) on an excruciatingly poor screenplay. Despite a talented cast no actor could breathe life into the script, with the exception of Salazar as Alita. When you can’t get a performance out of Christopher Waltz something has gone horribly wrong.
