The Garbage War
15 July 2021
If you want nice CGI then look here.

If you want a meaningful plot, don't bother.

The movie is about monsters attacking the world in the future and time travellers from the future come back to recruit people from the present to fight in this war.

Unfortunately, there is little sense in it. The screenwriter's concept of "time travel" changes every time there is a need to plug a big hole in the script. What is this? Many Worlds? Deterministic? Random? Certainly the writers don't have any concept that they can consistently hold on to.

So many of the scenes have no logical sense. People act in ways that defy all reason. The monsters too seem to change in their abilities depending on who they are attacking (Grunts - lethal aliens. Chris Pratt - aliens that are easily killed). On top of that, Chris Pratt can't act.

Overall a complete waste of time. So much could have been done with the concept but the opportunity was squandered. I don't ask a lot from action movies, but this is all round a very poor movie.

Three stars for the CGI.
