Chaos Walking : Wanna Hear What Tom Holland s Thinking? Think Again Chaos Walking : Wanna Hear What Tom Holland s Thinking? Think Again An attempt to start a film franchise out of Patrick Ness s YA sci-fi books - about a planet where everyone hears your thoughts - falls flat on its face its first time out David Fear, provided by FacebookTwitterEmail Chaos Walking, an adaptation of Patrick Ness’s young-adult trilogy about a planet where one’s private hopes and fears become public audiovisual transmissions, cribs the sentiment from that Dylan couplet though, to be fair, it does not chop off a single person’s head. Characters are shot, beaten, tortured, drowned, chased, burned, pushed into an abyss, scratched, and shamed, but no gets the falling blade. What happens to the cast of Doug Liman’s movie version, however, is far worse than any of that. They end up finding themselves stuck in an overcooked 22-pound cinematic turkey, a genuine schlockbuster, ....
If you think men are annoying in our world, wait till you get a load of them on the planet New World in “Chaos Walking,” the once highly anticipated prospective tentpole starring Tom Holland and Daisy Ridley. Based on the award-winning young-adult science fiction series by Patrick Ness specifically the first novel, “The Knife of Never Letting Go” the movie has taken nearly a decade to reach the screen after being announced by Lionsgate in 2011. To say expectations have waned would be an understatement. The studio, looking to continue its success with franchises such as “Twilight” and “The Hunger Games,” went through numerous writers, including, ahem, Charlie Kaufman (Ness and Christopher Ford receive final credit), and potential directors before starting production in 2017 with Doug Liman behind the camera. Reshoots, overseen by Fede Alvarez because Liman was unavailable, were pushed until 2019 due to the stars’ schedules, further delaying the release, wh ....
‘Chaos Walking’ Film Review: Tom Holland and Daisy Ridley Plod Through Limp Sci-Fi Saga On a future colony, humans will be able to hear each other’s thoughts but apparently those won’t be very interestingAlonso Duralde | March 3, 2021 @ 9:00 AM Last Updated: March 3, 2021 @ 9:06 AM Murray Close/Lionsgate Director Doug Liman spun an exceedingly high-concept science-fiction premise into narrative gold with “Edge of Tomorrow,” but in “Chaos Walking,” the concept is all there is. There’s no shortage of imaginative sci-fi details or of talented actors on-hand, but the film boils down to characters we barely get to know chasing each other and yelling. That it hardly matters who’s being chased or what, exactly, is being yelled mostly “Stop her!” and “AAAUUUGGGHHH!” is just part of the trouble here. ....
Sound and fury signifying nothing interesting. TWITTER 3/5/2021 Daisy Ridley plays a colonist from Earth who crash-lands on a strange planet among a hostile all-male community, with Tom Holland as the good guy shepherding her to safety in Doug Liman s dystopian sci-fi movie. Toxic masculinity is an interplanetary export in Doug Liman s Chaos Walking, in which the male population of human settlers experience a reaction to the environment of the New World that renders their every thought both audible and visible. The multihued blur of movement created around them by that unfiltered Noise at first had me wondering about a faulty link, or a possible need for picture adjustment on my TV. Not that the visual effects aren t slick, like everything else in this dour sci-fi saga. The issue is more that the information overload afflicting the men onscreen also infects the muddy storytelling from the start, failing to hook you into the characters or their plight. ....
