This movie does a good job making the audience care about the characters and even a better job portraying its story clearly. Would love to see a little more non-linear movement but still good as is.

It's sort of overlong and overstuffed, but Rosa Salazar is quite good.

As spectacle, the film is aces. It welds Rodriguez's eccentric touch with action and special effects to Cameron's mastery of world-building.

Our leading character Alita goes through a lot of development throughout this story, and it is engaging to watch.

Alita: Battle Angel is one of those movies that you HAVE TO watch at a movie theater (...) it's a visual experience, so do waste your time and money in supporting this film. Alita alone deserves that effort.

Rated: B+

But Why Tho? A Geek Community

I really enjoyed watching Alita Battle Angel. This is by far one of the better American live-action adaptations that’s been done.
