Aeon Flux


Moviegoing is an unpredictable activity; maybe that's why I love it.

The reviews for Aeon Flux are horrible, the box office is disappointing, yet I had a great time, proving once and for all that I have no taste and you should stop reading my blog.

Admittedly it's easier to like a movie when one goes in with no expectations, but I'm sincerely surprised this movie has been so roundly panned.

It's lovely to look at. The plot is interesting. The actors are fine. There is nothing wrong with this movie. I was completely entertained. The pacing is brisk, the violence is well-staged, the stunts are cool. Was it the best movie I've seen all year? Of course not. But was it the worst movie I've seen this week? Nope, Rent still holds that title.
