Well, the DVD Savant absolutly hated the film. Thought it was guilty of some of the worst sins of CGI films.
Personally, I take the film for what it is: made by a man who had an interesting idea in how to make a film, but didn't really have the experience of directing films, and the story was just a vehicle for the visual style. Sky Captain is a flawed film, but I find much to enjoy with it as well. (it helps that all the bad reviews put things in perspective for me.) I'll be interested to see how much Kevin Conran improves on things with "A Princess Of Mars". At least there, the source material wll be better.
