Priest (2011)
It tries to generate character and tension, but hasn’t spent enough time building them to earn it. There’s lots of awful dialogue, flooded with clichés… as is a lot of the plot, and the stock dystopian future setting, and the overuse of slow-mo. There’s some ideas with promise, but they’re largely shunted aside in favour of something from The Big Book of Standard Character Arcs.Read more on my new blog or my classic blog.
...but you may also have noticed that it's now June, so here's the May update too.
More next Sunday.
