I didn’t hate this, but there’s nothing about it to especially recommend. There are good owls, some bad ones, they fight, it’s… whatever. I only watched it because I was curious about what a Zack Snyder children’s movie might look like, and what I find myself thinking now is that I’m getting a little bored of his visual style. So much slow-motion flying and swooping in both this and Sucker Punch makes me worry for Man of Steel.
“Great look, shame about the script” seems to be the trend for Snyder since Watchmen.
