I watched Aeon Flux, while I had my lunch. Surprisingly, it was better than I thought it would be. The beginning, Aeon catches a fly in her eyelashes, just like in the animated series. She also wore tight black outfits, like in the animated series. The only things I really didn't care for were:
• Not enough blood. The animated series was full of blood.
• The animated series had lots of drug related sexual things happen. I understand they would probably be difficult to do, but this movie only had some kissing and one sex scene (you don't see anything. Just them waking up, after they "did it" wink .
• I forget her name, but the girl who worked with Aeon in the movie, was her rival in the animated series. They never worked together.
• Aeon should have died at the end, by some random stupid thing. In the animated series, she dies in every episode. Slipping and breaking her neck, stepping on a nail and falling from a great hight, etc.
Those aside, it was good.
If you don't know what the story is, I'll give a brief summary.
It's based in the future, after a disease fell upon mankind. A cure was created, but it had a side effect, which I won't tell you what it is. The government is a council, with one chairman (the head guy). All humans live within one city, surrounded by a giant wall. Aeon is part of a rebellion, trying to bring down the government.
Yeah, not a great summary, but it's hard to say much, without giving away important parts of the story.
It's worth a watch.
