Babylon A.D.
In a post-apocalyptic wasteland, a battle-hardened mercenary, Toorop, lives by his own code and the credo kill or be killed. When he takes the high-risk job of escorting a woman from Russia to American, he does not know that she is host to an organism that a cult wants to harvest in order to produce a genetically modified Messiah.

Violent actioner is dull, dreary, and defective.

This is a case of a potentially epic tale being pruned and diced to the point where its underlying ideas are reduced to trite clichés.

Skip it aggressively.

Even if it never finds an audience outside L.A., someone ought to write a book called When Dull Films Happen To Clever Production Designers.

With his face like a squashed doughnut, and physique like the tyres of a huge truck, Diesel just doesn't inhabit the same planet as Rampling or even Kassovitz himself.

Despite all its noise and bluster, this big-budget blockbuster is actually a rather slight dystopian sci-fi thriller.

A joyless mess of a movie.

The movie has a nice look -- gray, rusted metal exposed to Siberian and Bering Strait snow. What it lacks is coherence and a compelling reason for us to take this often-abrupt journey with Aurora, Toorop and Sister Rebeka.

To put it bluntly, Babylon A.D. is a cluttered mess. Characters have been under developed, realtionships have no chemistry, and its conclusion feels rushed and leaves too many unresolved questions.
