The Good
- CGI and casting is excellent including the estimable Bill Nighy as Matthias.
- The reference to Mars is a nice touch and if there was to be a TR2 then we'd probably have gone there
- The actions scenes are well choreographed and only a few times stretch credulity to its limit.
- 3 Boob woman
- implanted phones and electronic tattoos are neat
- who doesn't love flying cars?
- False Flag Attacks to justify invading 'The Colony' for lebensraum
- The exploration of reality - What is real and at what point do we as the audience slip into the possible fantasy with him? Is any of it real after he sits down in the chair?
The Bad
- The synthetic police/military units are a bit too iRobot/Blade Runner for my taste and the motivations of Cohaagen to build more and more of them seems thin.
- 'The Colony' is apparently the worlds most desirable ghetto
- Kate Beckinsale as waifish as ever paired again with Bill Nighy like this was another edition of Vampires vs Werewolves.
- I still like Kate but seriously she weighs all of 120lbs a stiff wind would knock her about though she does appear to have some athleticism.
- Cold have been better if done as a followup to the original rather than a reboot.
The Ugly: Nothing all that ugly the dialogue was fairly good for what it was.
