Also, Jupiter Ascending could have been great with more attention to plot and dialogue (another Wachowski’s film). And maybe with a more imposing villain. The visuals are pretty great, though, minus the obvious rave-culture insertions that seem cliche.
The director did not know what he was doing. It was his first live action film, and he needed to film key action sequences first so the special effects could be completed so that promotions would have a trailer six months before release.

Yeah, how the hell could people not like Boondock Saints. Great movie.
