I think the budget and cliffhanger feel that will never be justified by a sequel are enough evidence of overambition here, but hey, I don't mind, because this is indeed a decent film, just not quite what it wants to be, partly because everyone in this film is too busy to come back for a sequel, and largely because of some serious flaws.Īlmost surprisingly, this film gets kind of cheesy, featuring some dialogue and humor that are hokey in something of a kiddy way, and even tainting its mythology with somewhat, as Korey Coleman of put it, "dorky" elements that seem to further kiddy things up.

Shoot, forget organized religion, this might be a deconstruction of the conservative republican party, because I'm not entirely confident that they're not trying to say something when they name the evil, female political figure in this film Mrs. or almost two hours of mostly exposition and allegorical deconstructions of organized religion. We're talking about a futuristic world, spirit animals, warrior polar bears, James Bond as an adventurous college professor (British Indy!) and Sam Elliott as a cowboy aeronaut, so this is either going to be an awesome definitive fantasy epic.
