I didn’t hate it but it was too long and the marketing was messed up. I want Matthew to share whatever he was on when he wrote this. Any by messed up marketing I mean [Spoiler (click to open)]why bother with all the ads acting like Dua is in the movie for more than 7 minutes and as if Henry cavil is the lead

This sums up my exact thoughts on the movie lol

Honestly, just the way the trailer was set up and the conceit reveal, I assumed those two were only there for flashy eye candy and would have minimal screen time.

I have this confused thought that.... they thought they were the meatiest baits in attracting the attention and people? but that's lousy and bound to disappoint either way...

I mean imagine a whole movie of Dua and Cavill as leads? sheesh.... snore...

I can’t believe people want Cavil as bond, he has no charisma or energy at all Dula peep was beautiful gowns, great gowns
