Fair enough, but just because some people like something doesn't make it overrated. Yes, the movie's mostly crap, and i think most people will tell you so. What's overrated about liking it, if only for Milla Jovovich in surgical tape tops and sexy orange hair and....well, i digress.

Meanwhile, back on track, yeah, the trailer's poo. My larger concern is why video games and cartoons that were aimed toward a certain demographic (say, 13 - 30 yr old males with not much better to do than play video games or discuss anime), are being made into movies with multi-million dollar budgets? these movies rarely do well at the box office or in the critic's eyes. I dunno...i guess any way to make a buck.
