Just your standard Blomkamp subtleness. I enjoyed it, plot flaws and all.

Most accurate review I read, "Just a bunch of stuff that happened." I guess JJ and crew want to reverse the original Trek theory and make the even numbered films the bad ones.

Just re-watched this after seeing the sequel thinking maybe I judged it too harshly.

Nope.

Just two things I will say.
1. Snake Eyes has lips. LIPS

2. They made ice... sink... SCREW YOU PHYSICS

The first movie did what it could to ruin my childhood, but Retaliation did what it could to right the ship. They literally killed off the first movie to start this one. Of course there were plot holes because how are you going to make a movie about toys without them? It was entertaining and that's all I was looking for.
