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

[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.
