Storyline
Jupiter Jones was born under a night sky, with signs predicting that she was destined for great things. Now grown, Jupiter dreams of the stars but wakes up to the cold reality of a job cleaning other people's houses and an endless run of bad breaks. Only when Caine Wise, a genetically engineered ex-military hunter, arrives on Earth to track her down does Jupiter begin to glimpse the fate that has been waiting for her all along - her genetic signature marks her as next in line for an extraordinary inheritance that could alter the balance of the cosmos.
User Reviews
Pretty decent sci-fi flick
So..yes, this isn't the
best sci-fi movie in existence, but I don't think it's half as bad as
everyone is saying. Let's start by the visuals. The visuals are AMAZING
and are what makes this movie worth seeing on the big screen. The
universe the brothers created is huge,which gives room for a lot of
breath-taking scenes. This however, is one of the drawbacks of the film.
The fact that the universe is so big and that it is a 2 hour film,
makes the story a little sloppy. There are a lot of things left
unexplained which is a pity,and too much time filled with love scenes.
Moreover,the characters are either good or bad, there's not much depth
to them. Despite all this, the movie is good, I decided on 7 instead of
6.5 mainly because of the visuals. You need to consider this movie as a
sci-fi flick, taking into account that you don't see many original
sci-fi movies around,and that the plot isn't that bad,it's just not mind
blowing, I'd encourage you to see it for yourself, grab some popcorn
and enjoy the movie for what it is.
