The first 35 minutes are pretty painful to watch. Cringe with no forward momentum or real story. It does pick up after that point at least. Moreso still when the main character finally grows a pair. The 2nd foray into the Hive is watchable. The set design is pretty good, and what CGI there is passes the eye test. Costumes are creative. And the score is mostly fine.
But that acting and script. Seems the director didn't do the movie any favors either. My advice: have your finger on the +10 sec arrow and when a scene is draaaaggginnggg give that puppy a tap. Works wonders. Skippity skip through most of those first 35 minutes and a few more times here and there and this film is consumable.
