Director brothers Joe and Anthony Russo, known for their monumental film, Avengers: Endgame, venture into adapting The Electric State, a retro-futuristic sci-fi tale. Despite a lavish budget exceeding $300 million, the film is criticized for being long on exposition while short on genuine emotional engagement, feeling more like an engineering showcase than a compelling story. Starring Millie Bobby Brown, the movie presents a dystopian world post-robot uprising but fails to resonate, as characters lack depth amid the heavy narrative. This raises questions about the Russos' fit for the intimate scale of film storytelling.
The Russos' new adaptation, while visually ambitious, lacks the emotional depth necessary for a quality cinematic experience, ultimately resulting in a jumbled narrative.
With a staggering budget of $300 million-plus, the film's grand aspirations do not translate effectively, leaving viewers with more spectacle than substance.
