I'm really disappointed. The script is awful. Boring dialogues paired with flat characters. At no time I felt connected to the story or any of the characters. Besides that I also couldn't get used to look of the movie. There were many scenes that had the look & feel of a soap opera.

Sure the script needs some help, but let me tell you Smith does an absolute great job at being Junior. Honestly, he evokes emotion and na?veté so well and since the VFX is actually well done (90% of the time) you actually sense the humanity in this CG character (mainly because of Smith's performance). Winstead and Wong are solid co-stars. Each bringing their own thing to the table. Kinda felt like they could've been utilized better (including Smith), but I'm chalking that up to the script too. Smith really does shine twice, but the script really doesn't help elevate the concept. But besides the script being the problem. The action sequences were good, cinematography was cool, the interaction between Junior and Winstead and older Smith was entertaining. There's a few lines that Junior says to Winstead that made me laugh out loud. He's not the young wisecracking Smith, but he's this naive and almost innocent, yet confident Smith that makes the delivery that much better. Sure there are a few gripes and small issues, but it was overall fairly entertaining. I'd check it out. I saw it in 3D 60fps and it actually looked really good since it was shot in 3D. Probably not necessary, but I'll be seeing it in 2D 24fps to see if it helped or hurt it.

How can anyone give this film anything less than a 6? Wannabe critics are quick with all the 1, 2 and 3's. This film was well directed, decently written, excellently cast, great score, amazing v/sfx and non stop action. The pacing was perfect and the run-time just right. Smith was his usual outstanding self, as was his CGI younger twin. Very enjoyable story and great entertainment. I wanted more! It's a well deserved 8/10 from me for this great production. Ignore the troll reviews and go see it, it's a good time for sure.
