The bombastic score and stentorian narration are relentless.....The film's most striking feature is its skillful blending of live action with computer-generated backgrounds.....The movie itself proved relentless, too, earning $71 million in its debut weekend.....Even the characters are relentless in the pursuit of their goals..... ...
