I don’t necessarily recommend this movie, but it did have some stunning visuals. I wish I could’ve given you more pixels.

This movie was strange. I saw it in the theater and when the end credits started rolling, someone behind me said, “What the fuck did I just watch?”

Oooh I just watched this for the first time last night, I loved it! That bear is damn near perfect monster design. The visuals are fantastic overall, I loved the fungal shapes & plants. I was kinda bugged that they seemed to imply swapping hox genes between species was causing it all though, like that’s not how that works. Unless that was supposed to be a guess from the character…but she’s supposed to be a biologist? Idk. I still liked the movie.

That annoyed me too, it’s like they read a sentence about what hox genes do and just rolled with it.

Either way, I really enjoyed the film too.

I took it as someone throwing out a wobbly attempt at a rational explanation to explain something that financially had no rational explanation. She was trying to find some logical stability, but didn’t even know where to start.
