It read as a watered down version of Mad Max: Fury Road. Aesthetically, it read as part of the post apocalyptic Mad Max world and used a lot of monochromatic and "bleach washed" film style to give a similar visual grit. The story is a fantasty story, not supriing from the author of Game of Thrones. Milla is good as always as a leading action lady. It is funny how much we think of action films as male dominated, but Milla Jovovich, Angelina Jolie, and Charlize Theron have thrown themselves into some huge action and high concept franchises. This film is in the lower middle of that group. At times, it feels budget. The plot is a very thin fairy tale without much depth and leaves the characters as archetypes. Milla does an action scene like few others can and I can imagine a few people cosplaying her role.
