Utterly craptasticly lazy writing with no foundation for any element critical to the story.
This fiction, but it certainly is nothing anywhere close to science fiction. That would require science of some kind, ideally at least moderately supportable in the internal structure of the story covering multiple scientific disciplines.
This story has none of that, no actual foundation for the plot, and no justification for its complexity, it's length, most of the effect used (rather, abused), or even for it's very existence.
1 of 10, grudgingly.
Avoid at all costs! Take up macrame instead, or tatting. At least those actually involve science.

Aside from the low quality video, which could compete with porn from the sixties, and absolutely horrendous audio which couldn't, this movie is lacking a thing two.
For instance, some semblance of decent acting. That's missing.
Writing? Well, it's there. I mean, somebody wrote some words. They were poorly chosen and badly assembled, and every character has the same limited vocabulary, but technically it's writing, and it is unfortunately present.
I won't touch the plot. That would be making the same mistake the producers made.
Any real character development must have been saved for the prequel, so there's that. Rather, there isn't.
That's enough words.

5/10, sort of
Frankly, if I hadn't seen the latest Flash movie, I'd have given this a significantly lower review. The story wasn't just on crutches from the start, it abandoned one crutch for another as it went along, as if the writers knew none of them would stand for long.
Definitely not Momoa's best outing, even within his limits.
Now I need characters that matter to reach six hundred. This movie needs more characters that matter, and actors and writing which make me believe they do, so I'll keep writing words until this review is accepted, or DC gets back to providing quality, whichever comes first.
