Incannerax What a waste of my time!!!

Konterr Brilliant and touching

InformationRap This is one of the few movies I've ever seen where the whole audience broke into spontaneous, loud applause a third of the way in.

Tayloriona Although I seem to have had higher expectations than I thought, the movie is super entertaining.

escctrlshift Need I say more? A movie that manages to make Charlize Theron's character boring and insipid is one insipid, boring movie. I can only imagine she was, to some degree, bored and uninspired on the set of this production, even though technically she was well-cast (could she ever not be?) and certainly, gifted enough to take the money and run fast and happy to her next, hopefully more worthy gig. What the movie otherwise lacks otherwise in terms of writing, casting and direction, the production somewhat makes up for by compelling locations, good enough lighting, and sound/soundtrack that must have sounded rather nice in a big theater umpteen years ago. Aside from these considerations, need I observe any further on this movie than to comment that, as of early 2018, it is available on Netflix? I should subtract one star just for that.

TonyMontana96 The 10 idiot critics on rotten tomatoes that gave this film a positive review deserve to be banned from reviewing, there is nothing watchable, nothing sexy, nothing plausible in this piece of complete garbage. Even Charlize Theron gives a wooden performance. Which is not something I expect from an actress of her calibre. As you can guess the rest of the other acting is absolutely dreadful. No need mentioning who else was in it, because it didn't look like they turned up to act. The picture opens with ridiculous costumes, stupid hairdo's and a futuristic setup that looks like it was stole from better films like The Demolition Man and Star Wars Empire Strikes Back. Furthermore there is zero character development, a lot of the characters appear to have been born without a name, such as some redheaded woman who is some kind of leader with no background, no motive or even anything simple like a name.The visuals suck, the characters are simple cannon fodder to entertain dumb moviegoers and you would think when Theron's sister is killed you would expect her to at least look like she cares, but no, not even a tear, and minutes later she's having sex with the person she believes is responsible for her sister's death which is simply incomprehensible and to boot, tries to strangle him upon waking, hmm, what on earth were the writers thinking. Another prime example is after Theron's character who has several names by the way; fights a coloured woman that appears to be a villain and beats her up quite badly, moments later you see that same woman telling her master she failed without a single scratch or bruise in sight.There's also plenty of cringeworthy dialogue, like "We're meant to die (says Theron) everything about us doesn't matter" so hurry up and walk into a stray bullet so this mess can be over with. Aeon Flux can't even rely on its action scenes, as they're just boring through the motions fodder. Karyn Kusama (the director) and his crew should all be very ashamed of what they have done, releasing this disaster upon the world; it's one of the worst films ever made. Overall Aeon Flux is plot less, clueless, bottom of the barrel sludge. 0/10

cockpitanus It is completely different from the series, in a very very bad way. It is overly-stylized and seems clinically clean, which is basically the opposite of what the animation in the series was all about. The dialogues are awful, and the whole story is non-original (as again opposed to the stories of the series).The worst part probably is the relationship between Aeon Flux and Trevor Goodchild. In the series their relationship is on a very weird level between "let's kill each-other" and "let's f#ck'. In the film Trevor goes from presumably bad guy (in fact he never really does anything morally wrong) to TEAMING UP with Aeon in order to fight the REAL bad guys, which later on in the film seize power and were betraying Trevor the whole time. The whole relationship is not only dumbed-down, but completely different as well.My conclusion is that it's okay to make a big-budget retarded action film with cringe-worthy one-liners and clichéed dialogue, as long as the person doing it doesn't buy an already established brand, only to sell more of their sh#t. I mean if the names of the characters and so on had been changed I wouldn't have realized that it was 'based' on the series, and maybe I would have given it 4/10, but like this it's more of an insult as well, so 2/10 right in your face (not that anyone would care).Also, anyone who claims that the people hating this film "don't understand it" are f#cking morons.

Python Hyena Aeon Flux (2005): Dir: Karyn Kusama / Cast: Charlize Theron, Jonny Lee Miller, Frances McDormand, Pete Postlethewaite, Sophie Okonedo: Apparently based on a video game and easily one of the stupidest films that a person can punish their intelligence to. It rates right up there with Son of the Mask as one of the worst pieces of crap released in 2005. A disease wipes out 99% of mankind although just enough survived to make this film. A walled city shelters the remaining while scientists clone people. Aeon Flux is sent to kill a government leader only to uncover deep secrets. Special effects are creative despite a screenplay that is about as fetching as a third grade book report. The director showcases the bizarre without reason while Charlize Theron drones through dimwitted dialogue and kicks the living crap out of numerous people every two minutes or so. Jonny Lee Miller plays the targeted government leader who shares a past with Flux. Yes, and they also share the experience of being part of this stupid film. Frances McDormand and Pete Postlethewaite appear in laughable roles. The special effects are the payoff and that is pretty much the only thing that this waste of time has to offer. It is based on a video game, and how many of those are worth the price of admission? Flux sucks and should be used as target practice, but first a little baseball bat action upon it would do it justice. Score: 1 / 10
