    Watched because of it's supposed connection to The Witch. They should have committed to making this a full 6 or 8 episode miniseries wherein plot beats and characters are given more time to be fleshed out and developed. Instead we got a long and erratic movie chopped into 4 pieces for seemingly no reason. The main saving graces are Lim, played by Cha Seung-won, who is a fun character, and the action which is pretty frequent and gnarly

    This is far too scattershot - it tries to do so much but it ends up failing to do enough. Not funny enough for comedy, not thought provoking enough for sci-fi, and not tense enough for thrillers. Which is a shame because there is good here (also because big budget, mostly original, sci-fi is rare these days). The performances are great, Pattinson's weird accent works perfectly, and Bong can still direct the hell out of a scene, injecting plenty of energy to keep things from feeling languid. It's just unfortunate it doesn't come together for me as well as his other films do

    More varied action scenes, and just the absurd spectacle of the whole thing, gives it a leg-up over previous entries and helps the long runtime fly by. All the actors are in top form, but I have to give a shoutout to Donnie Yen and Scott Adkins - they were so damn good.

    Give us the Klaus spinoff you cowards
