Sky Captain and the World of Tomorrow Reviews
Not a movie for everyone but I found it exciting, silly and fun. I love the visuals and style of this film. And I thought the cast was pretty great.
If I had seen this as a kid, I would have thought it was the coolest movie ever made.
Absolutely beautiful cinematography! Fun thriller with great acting.
Fun and glitzy visuals, but pretty terrible plot. Summarized by (spoilers) Angelina Jolie saying that mountain a rescue risking hundreds to save a few is a terrible idea, then changes her mind and does exactly that, resulting in hundreds getting killed trying to rescue a few.
This is not a great movie however I will say the Idea behind it was entreating but in truth this is not a show for adults but rather it is very reminiscent of the cereal shows of the 50 and 60 that is based on. my 4 year old sun loves this film and watches it again and again there are worse shows to have him obsess on
A classic, throwback adventure movie. It may be a little silly and cliche, but if you don't take it too seriously, it will have you smiling from beginning to end.
They should be ashamed of themselves. Shameless ripoff of Indiana Jones series but with an over the top, dark, comic book feel. Wasted a great cast with a stupid plot and terrible dialog. A parody that takes itself seriously. Hope the actors were paid a lot of money because this stinker should have never seen the light of day.
The worst CGI for a 2004 film it could've worked better as complete CGI film as opposed to live action.I could not finish watching the film.
This reminds me of the serials of the 1930s and 1940s, like Indiana Jones movies are. But while Indiana Jones were more like the action serials. This was more like the "Radar Men From The Moon" or "Buck Rogers" style. Just some of the CGI backgrounds don't always blend with the human actors. But other than that, I really enjoyed this purposefully cheesy fun with a great cast and cool robots right out of the "Superman" cartoon from 1930s. If you love Indiana Jones, you owe yourself to watch this too.
Incredibly cheesy from start to finish.
Just not enough to be entertaining.
Sort of interesting and unique. Not great, but for an action adventure you could do far worse.
Too much too fast to mentally process and digest and it never really lets up which left it unable to fully ‘click' with and that leaves a feeling of something missing for much of the runtime. Then you look at it and cannot think of what exactly it is that is missing and that leaves you speechless but not in a satisfied way. Then you realize what is missing - fun. It's not as fun as it should have been. Why is it not fun? Because it's just not.
Not the greatest story ,but at least this movie tried to something new with the visual affects department.
Animation? CG? Cartoon? Don't think it's virtual reality, what kind of movie making is this? The lady reporter without a scream the whole dogfight, hahaha...? Really enjoyable unorthodox adventure that may you may have dream of. A mixed of pearl-harbor, G.I. Joe, James Bond, S.H.I.E.L.D, Jurassic World & Ark of Noah recycle it & put together in a buffet
Fun movie, Fabulous retro look, great soundtrack, plus Lawrence Olivier RIP. Homage to all that is art deco. Pioneering visuals.
This is a rare case where I have to join the critics rather than the masses. This is not a great movie but it is it is a good and entertaining movie. The production values are spectacular (score, look) but the plot is rather thin, although not as thin as a Fast and Furious film. Overall this is more entertaining than most of the fecal waste matter Hollywood puts out, such as the Disney Star War films.
