Look this is a good movie. Fun and entertaining. Has old fashion excitement, with very interesting visuals. A very solid old fashion score. The acting is a little cheesey at times; but I think it works overall. Definately takes you away... Full review

Sky Captain and the World of Tomorrow is a good movie. In many ways, it is unique, though personally, I did not care too much for the lighting. Overall, it is an entertaing sci-fi action/adventure movie. I did see 10,000 B.C.... Full review

I must say that i really appreciated this movie. The acting, sure, is much different than in other action movies. The characters are very comic like. They always keep their composure. Reading some of the earlier reviews it seems that some... Full review

I suppose we're meant to watch in awe of the spectacular art direction of the film, and certainly there are some great shots, but amazingly, for a movie designed entirely as a special effect extravaganza involving giant robots attacking Manhattan from a secret base in Shangri-La, "Sky Captain" has very few surprises. ...

It is by far the most original adventure film since that time though, and is extremely underrated. Co-starring Academy Award® winner Angelina Jolie as the ravishing Captain Franky Cook and Giovanni Ribisi as the technical genius Dex, Sky Captain and the World of Tomorrow features innovative state-of-the-art special effects that will thrill and amaze you right through to the action-packed finale. ...
