Yes.

The first 20-30 minutes or so is kind of slow. It gets better and turns into a cross between 2001 a space oddyssey and recall.

It's a bit hit and miss. Great visuals, lazy writing. Action scenes work entirely on cliché and the characters are pretty much non existent. The cool killer droids suddenly can't shoot worth damn when the protagonist or anybody else important is in the line of fire. Etc etc... just, lazy plotting. End is unsatisfying as well.

Im going to agree with apedt on this one, the visuals were cool and some if the action sequences but the plot was pretty drab and the twist completely obvious, almost to the point it was like the writers were trying to point it out so anybody could pick up on it esrly.

it wasnt a bad movie, I suppose I just expecred more, on a side note I found Moon to be a great film.
