Just saw it last night - (need to get out more. . .)
• The plot contained just about every action / adventure film clichè from the last 40 years.
• The special effects are beyond belief. Some of the 3D tricks were really clever, like the Colonels face in the mirror when he was in the Mechanized Soldier contraption. Somebody has really figured out how to create the illusion of living creatures. A whole 'nother level.
• Blue females - tall, thin, nubile, great butts, great titties, practically naked, plus a tail. What's not to like?
• 3D - looks like it's with us for a while, the trailers for all the other films (Shreck, Alice in Wonderland, something else I forgot) - all in 3D. I guess I'll get used to it.
Bottom line? If it weren't for the amazing CGI, it would probably be a bomb. (edit) The incredible CGI is worth seeing, for sure, but I hardly consider it to be Best Picture material.
