This was a visual treat. A full-blown action movie masked as some sort of intelligent sci-fi. Lots of explosions and people shooting at each other.

But no real character development here. No memorable characters. Almost no tension.

Christopher Nolan was the guy who directed 'Memento' and reinvented the Batman-franchise, right? What happened here? Instead of sitting on the edge I my seat, I found myself checking my watch. Not good.

I expected more than just a lot of cool special effects and Oscar-worthy production design. I expected a gripping story.

I left the theater disappointed.
