Went to see Jupiter Ascending, and after the film got out of the theater feeling determined and strangely exhilarated. Firstly, I'm determined to somehow inspire Wachowskis to film some Iain M. Banks Culture novel. At times the movie made me despair, since so great scenes and special effects were created to accompany such an ... infantile story.

I thought the same thing about the love confession. Of course I knew to expect that they'd end up at least having sex, if not in a romantic relationship of some sort, but at that point in the movie it came a bit out of the blue. There didn't seem to be very much of that kind of chemistry between them, and suddenly Jupiter was all dewy-eyed about him and the audience was supposed to start believing in them as a couple.

The love confession came really from behind a bush quite abruptly, even if was obvious from the set-up that they would end up together. But I was expecting there to be some scene where they bond or something... but I'm willing to give the benefit of doubt that there's going to be a5-hour direcotr's cut where their relationship slowly blossoms.
