An absolute cinematic disaster.

When Alita awakens with no memory of who she is in a future world she does not recognize, she is taken in by Ido, a compassionate doctor who realizes that somewhere in this abandoned cyborg shell is the heart and soul of a young woman with an extraordinary past.

Even the popcorn looked bored during Alita: Battle Angel.

If Alita: Battle Angel was a meal, it'd be unsalted rice with extra ego.

Watched Alita: Battle Angel so you don't have to. You're welcome.

The science in Alita: Battle Angel has the same relationship to physics that I have to going to the gym: aspirational.

[Serious Discussion] Is anyone else completely checked out by the pacing in Alita: Battle Angel?

Honestly, Alita: Battle Angel would be a tight 95-minute movie. Instead we got a bloated runtime padded with B-roll and lingering shots that add nothing.

Unpopular opinion: Alita: Battle Angel is the most overrated film of the decade

Look, I wanted to love Alita: Battle Angel. The trailer had me hyped. But sitting through the second hour felt like a homework assignment. The dialogue is exposition stacked on exposition and the score keeps telling me how to feel.

Hot Take: Alita: Battle Angel's third act ruined what could have been a masterpiece

Director clearly thought Alita: Battle Angel was deeper than it is. There's a difference between ambiguous and unfinished, and this leans hard into the second.
