Babylon A.D. (2008)


The Good:
Vin Diesel is definitely a guilty pleasure of mine. He is not a super actor, but he is our generation's Arnold, or John Wayne... you gotta love a straight-up action flick!
Interesting concept.
A believable futuristic world, I liked the setting a lot.

The Bad:
The story was a great skeleton, but not a fully realized tale.
My ability to suspend disbelief was "challenged" in a few places.
Not a big fan of the soundtrack in general.

Overall: It is no Children of Men as far as a future film is concerned, and it is not a Chronicles of Riddick as far as a Vin Desel film is concerned, but it is a decent action movie. Don't expect much more.
