The Bad Batch

_The Bad Batch_ ticked so many of my aesthetic boxes going in, that I didn't see any possible way that I could hate it. And I didn't, but it does make me worry, that if someone like me could come out of _The Bad Batch_ just "liking" it, then how will a more general audience respond? My assumption is that it's probably not favourably. _Final rating:★★½ - Had a lot that appealed to me, didn’t quite work as a whole._

I liked the look of this film. It reminded a lot of Fallout 4, especially the two major settlements could be made into settlements in the game easily, and the special effects were amazing. What I didn't like was the story, as it confused the hell out of me. I couldn't understand the motivations of the main character, or really any other character in the movie as they really gave no reasons for anything they did nor could those motivations be inferred, and the lack of dialogue meant no one asked why about anything. Or if anyone questioned anything, the best answer you get is thats just the way it is. I could accept that if what it was made any sense, and most of the time it didn't. I'm going with a bold idea that was mishandled. Final rating:★½ - Style over substance.
