A movie directed by Karyn Kusama

Like theanimated seriesit’s based on,Aeon Fluxis the kind of sci-fi that’s best appreciated by the MTV generation. It’s a serious attempt at stylized, futuristic action/adventure (the title character, played by Charlize Theron, is essentially … see full wiki

Good sci-fi flick starring hot babes

It seems that every hot actress needs to star in at least one comic-book or sci-fi action flick to show of her athleticism, long legs, perfect tone and great figure. Angelina Jolie had Tomb Raider, Halle Berry had Catwoman, Pamela Andersen had Barb Wire, and now Charlize Theron has Aeon Flux. Fortunately, this one is actually very good. Set in the distant future on an Earth decimated by a plague, Ms. Theron plays the title character, an assassin of incredible skill, beauty and ruthlessness. The … more

Where's the 1.21 gigawatt flux capacitor when you need one?

This was a very enjoyable movie. It raised some interesting science fiction concepts, and has some very thrilling scenes (wait until you see the blades of grass -- emphasis on the word blade). It has mixed critical reviews, so I put off watching it for a long time, but now I'm very glad I did. It reminded me of Gattaca, with some shades of Dark City thrown in. So, if you liked those movies, you may like this as well. I have no idea how closely it fit … more

Nothing like the original

MTV's Aeon Flux (Aeon Flux - The Complete Animated Collection) was interesting and appealing when it first aired. The portrayal and drawing of the characters were not only appealing but intriguing as well. I thoroughly enjoyed the animated Aeon FLux and I was very excited when I heard this movie was coming out. What a dissapointed. Although the stylistic approach may be there and the storyline is interesting someting just falls flat. The action sequences are good and Theron did a good job. But, … more

Why Do I Have The Feeling The Cartoon Was Better?

Pros: Ms. Theron and company in tight jumpsuits. Cons: Almost everything. The Bottom Line: Ultimately Aeon Flux is a movie to watch when there is nothing else on and you want a dose of Charlize Theron in a tight black suit. Plot Details: This opinion reveals minor details about the movie''s plot. Movie begins, fade to black with white letters: "2011, A Virus kills 99% of the world’s population. A scientist, Trevor Goodchild, … more

Good But Not Good

It's crazy because Aeon Flux is the first movie I've seen where the beginning feels like the end. When Aeon Flux was released I read reviews saying that if you've never seen the anime series that this is a hard movie not only to understand but also to sit through since you don't really know that much about it's past. This film feels like it's bringing closure to it's fans and all that says is that it's only for fans. Besides the fact that I attempted to watch this movie a little blind somehow it … more

Running out of Comic Book Characters? Try MTV Anime!

AEON FLUX is an embarrassment. With the number of gifted writers creating meaningful dramas begging for cinematic adaptation burgeoning, why Hollywood continues to make these bloated sci-fi/fantasy driven, flat stories that were only created as static eye candy games in the first place, into movies just begs an answer. But the incredible aspect of these creations is how the production companies lure some of our best talent into these messes that can't help but taint the artistic choices made by … more

Fantastic utopia with a slick heroine

I had no idea I would love this move as much simply because I heard it got some bad reviews, I'm not a Chalize Theron fan and I have never watched the original cartoon. Man I was wrong, to heck with all the negative rubbish, I love it! The film itself is pure fantasy captured on the screen. I felt transported to another world for the time it took me to absorb the story and on a minor vain note I ended up loving Aeon's hairdo- do, it was awesome! Aeon … more
