A Visual Spectacle with No Substance

I had high expectations for In the Lost Lands, given the well-known cast and the intriguing premise. Unfortunately, this turned out to be one of the worst movies I've seen in a cinema.The film relies heavily on visual effects, but beyond that, there is little to enjoy. The storyline is chaotic and lacks clarity, making it difficult to stay engaged. The dialogue feels artificial-almost as if it were generated by AI-devoid of any real emotion or depth.Milla Jovovich and Dave Bautista are talented actors, and their performances were solid, but even great acting can't save a movie with a weak script. A compelling story is the backbone of any good film, and this one simply didn't have it.I can't help but wonder: Did anyone actually read the script before agreeing to this project? With such a high-budget production, featuring top-tier actors and elaborate CGI, it's baffling that the storytelling was so poor.I'm giving In the Lost Lands a 5/10, solely because of the acting and visual effects. Sadly, without a strong narrative, it all feels like an empty spectacle.

Honestly, its a bit better than expected. Yet, still sucked.

I knew going into this it was going to be bad. I love this type of theme but they always seem to screw it up with bad writing. Id love to finally see a good movie with this type of setting. I will say part of it I was entertained. Action, relationships, some twists and turns. When we left the theater, multiple people mentioned it didn't make sense. While it did to me, I get that viewpoint. Because it was weak when they were trying to be creative. It's a sleeper, and i don't suggest people use their hard earned money to see this. While it was beautiful and you could see they put in a lot of work, it just came out super flat with the story.Watched at AMC on 3-6-2025.

Lacking substance and depth with disappointing action for a Paul Anderson film.

2 out of 5 stars.In the Lost Lands is a bad fantasy epic film that is based on a story from George Martin. Which the story is brief and lacking substance.Pros:The film is very fast moving. It's a Paul W. S. Anderson film which means it's going to be quickly paced. Plenty of action. And mindless entertainment. Well it is fast paced but it lacks every thing else in the film.Cons:It is one of Paul W. S. Anderson worst films in his history. The Three Musketeers had a somewhat decent entertainment value. I loved the Resident Evil films for what it was. And it was not much. It was plenty of entertainment. Even his Monster Hunter. In the Lost Lands is a film that is a combo of genres of gunslingers, westerns. And post apocalyptic. Mad Max with a bit of werewolves, witches and monsters. And a cult of church fanatics that went insane. Film was all over the place. It was just boring.The visual effect were throughout the movie from sets and back drop. Creating the hazy, brooding atmosphere, and dark lighting. Film just felt like one big hazy dream. Lots of camera lens flares that was used for the tone of the film just felt like a cheap production.The plot was fast and lacking development with the story. It was difficult to care for any characters.The action sequences were disappointing. Paul Andersons worst films on handling the action. It was brief in most scenes. And lacking the entertainment value. The climatic fight with Werewolf and Witch was short and quick. It was hard to care for it.Milla Jovovich and Dave Bautista were okay with there roles. The script had cheesy dialogue filled for there characters and lacking any depth for them. The villain was very forgettable and was just there to be the person chasing the characters throughout the film.Overall, it was one bad film that action was boring, even the story and direction. It was shocking to see Paul Anderson slipping as a filmmaker. Which he does a great job in creating blockbuster entertainment. This fantasy film is not one of them.
