    I loved watching this sci-fi spectacle’s moving parts. I just couldn’t get past its brain. show more

    Alita barely considers any of the existential questions about humanity that are typically central to this kind of sci-fi film. It’s just a slick action film. That is one way, at least, it does feel like a Robert Rodriguez movie. show more
