Voxitype Good films always raise compelling questions, whether the format is fiction or documentary fact.
marco-galvez At first i thought that the mix reviews were due to the combination of genres, being this a cowboy, scifi and fantasy movie all at once. It wasn't untill the end i realized it was due to great and terrible moments this movie has. The first half of the movie was strong, from character introductions and storytelling to even editing. Halfway through things get abrupt, Carter had a full hour and a half of potential character development, yet they push his motivation in half a minute of screen time during an action sequence edited horribly with a montage sequence of the past. I understand that writers might have wanted this to be the breaking point, but directing missed heavily. From here on things go on a decline, not so much as story wise, but more of those as pacing, editing and overall acting. Movie that was firm with its idea but loose on its execution.
Vladislav Dobrovan Just went through my list of ratings and surprisingly found that community and critics ratings are still low for this movie , and I still don't know why this happen , since it has the plot , design , graphics of a solid movie Maybe someone can help me with this mystery?
nicktracy420 It is a real damn shame that this movie was not as well received as it should have been. I have heard that marketing was to blame, but this movie was really awesome. The bad marketing did not affect me at all since I see a movie like this and immediately put it on my watch list.Original and mostly true to the novel (they really wanted it all ages) it will take you on the epic adventure of Barsoom, an advanced mars full of wacky aliens and hot babes.I am still holding out hope that some day maybe we will get the 2 sequels that were to follow by Stanton.
Stewart Reeve Once again, we need to ignore critics to make sure we don't miss out on a good, fun time...John Carter is one of the most underrated movies of the last 10 years or so.Critics panned what should have been a box-office success.This is a movie for people, not for wanky critics - I really enjoyed the ride and the originality, and would like to see a follow-up.Worth seeing.
