Wow, this movie was terrible, I still don't know what it was about, horrendous.

Just awful, pointless, there was no need to make this film.

This is as unhealthy an entertainment choice as anything at the theater's snack bar. As eye candy, it's marshmallow peanuts compared to the anime shorts' Godiva chocolate. As brain food, it's a brief sugar rush followed by a long, restless sleep where any dream you might have beats what's onscreen. Not good for you even if you HAVE finished your veggies.

In a library, a book gets shot. Fearing she had a bomb on her hand, perhaps this was an act of subversion, a mea culpa. In "Mystery Men", a possibly embarrased Janeane Garofalo, in what sounds like an ad-lib, says, "I would like to dedicate my victory to supporters of local music and those who seek out independent film." Seek "Girlfright; run from "Aeon Flux". At some point during the production, Frances McDormand should've asked her boss if she was trying to make her look like Tori Amos' mom. When Ms. Flux and/or Sithandra(Sophie Okonedo) visit "The Handler", a POV shot might've helped the ridiculous way they access her seem less so. There also seems to be a caste system at work here. The black girl gets the silly appendages, the white girl gets the snappy line about, said silly appendages. "Aeon Flux" is a natural for "Mystery Science 3000".… Expand

Disjointed. Adequate of action but deficient of relevance.

Aeon Flux is, in my opinion, the worst movie of last year. The story is slow and hard to understand, the acting was crap, and the special effects were terrible. I've never seen the original cartoon and can already tell it's been slaughtered by this crap.

Aeon Flux Sux.

So unoriginal, so derivative, Aeon Flux drains your faith in the human race. How many times have we seen a glossy, sexy suit on a heroine lost within an utterly incoherent plot? The movie is ludicrous; the Resident Evil films come to mind, as does Underworld. That Theron chose this between such actual work as Monster and North is a disgrace; she and Oscar-caliber Halle Berry can choose whichever projects (and paychecks) they want, and they go with Catwoman and Aeon Flux. What discerning taste, ladies. People: please see this dreck for what it is, a shameless attempt by a corporation to repurpose a piece of dead content it owned, and a shameful, thoughtless check-cashing by Theron. Another entry in a year of winners from Hollywood.… Expand

The worst movie I've seen since the matrix. The editing in the action scenes have hamstrung what would have at least been a shoe-in as a cult favorite. I won't even get this on used DVD due to that abominable flaw. Uwe Bol or paul anderson couldn't have done much worse.

You know an action movie is destined to be awful when the main antagonist is shown for a split second and a women doing the splits over blades of grass is the biggest attraction. I've go an idea! They made Alien vesus Predator, why not Catwoman versus Aeon Flux? Berry and Theron can each recieve $20 million to wear skin tight leather outfits in the most incoherent stinker of all time! Go Hollywood! Keep pumping out these winners!!… Expand

Perhaps it was that I was never introduced to Aeon Flux previously that I disliked this movie so, because this flick is particularly bad. From the mediocre acting to the pointless fight sequences, it just is NOT entertaining on any level, which really is a shame because I greatly enjoy science fiction related stories. Ohh well. My opinion is given. I do not reccomend, unless you yourself are an Aeon Flux fan. Aeon Flux sucks, Aeon Flux = Aeon Sux. I literally could think of these all day and still be far more entertained....yes I find this movie that bad.… Expand

I went into this movie not having read any reviews. The ideas underpinning the plot are somewhat interesting. However, they are wasted by the film's poor pacing and lack of introspection. There are perhaps two good action sequences in this film, and more than two awful ones. Theron is mis-cast here. This is not a role for her. She's not an Angelina Jolie in Tomb Raider or a Kate Beckinsale in Underworld who are both compelling to watch, even as one-dimensional characters, and who both come to epitomise the heavily stylised worlds in which the action takes place. Theron looks out of place, and suffers from a mediocre script. This movie certainly had potential, but it just didn't work out. The narrative didn't flow, certain aspects of the plot are revealed too late or too soon or all at once. A half-decent story is spoiled not be a lack of coherence, but a lack of consistency. That's my opinion, anyway.… Expand

This is the worst of simple eye candy. Very bad.

This is to offset M. Jones, who wants to offset the scores of everyone else. Nice try, tool. Yes, you've got a right to your opinion. And the other voters (and the critics) have a right to theirs. If their opinion doesn't coincide with yours, then you don't try to cancel theirs out. You sit there, and you understand that everyone isn't always going to agree with you. It's called tolerance.… Expand

I never thought a movie could be so terrible!

I find this movie undefiniedm skurred and blurred, plot and ideas submergin and reemerging - quite unforcused. To me, it is a pity that a good actress like she was iun her Academy-winning role, Charlyse has not been able tofind any better vehicles since.

Pathetic attempt to bring a great and intriguing animated series to live-ation. The film mars the original brutally, losing it's heavy bdsm sexual themes and the deviousness of its core characters, while barely justifying it's action sequences with an extremely predictable plot. This is one intstance where the critics are dead-on correct with their reviews (the negative reviews...) If you have seen the original series or part of it, do yourself a favor and save the money and time you would waste on seeing this anomaly.… Expand

Lame excuse to make another Tomb Raider film... Bad Girl with guns.... Lets not forget that Aeon Flux stars an ugly girl not a bombshell georgeous woman... and that she dies in the most rediculous ways in every episode. Lame excuse to make money out of a name. As FF Spirits Within is not Final Fantasy... This movie is not Aeon Flux!

There can be no justification for scores above 3 for this movie. I've seen some garbage flicks in my life, but this one is near the top. See what happens when you get an "A" star filming two movies at once - better believe one of the projects is gonna suffer.

Poorly scripted, poorly plotted, poorly acted and poorly made. In short a real disappointment.

Well id give it at least a 3 if it wasn't for the horrible aftertaste. I'm sorry but I am not sorry because this mediocre movie shows no respect to the trueness of what aeon flux was and still vaguely is. its disrespectful to the cartoon. 1/4

Awful overall. The characters are wooden, the acting uninspired, and the plot decent at best. On the plus side, the special effects are good, and Charlize Theron is extremely hot in skin tight clothing.

This movie, and obvious blend of The Matrix and The Island, tries to be intellegent. Tries to have good action, but fails. I was never a fan of the anime series, but Charlize Theron seems like a good enough character and is very athletic. Good selection as a main character.

Boring, poorly directed and poorly made movie. This is garanteed to put all but the most forgiving, or those that have some kind of dvd player that sits on you and forces you to watch this rubbish, to sleep. Aimed clearly at anime geeks that are looking for a fix of overly pretencious but utterly shallow and empty movie with no real innovation, talent or thought behind its story. Looks like its designed by some generic cloned art grad student.… Expand

The film criticizes the wish to live forever. It suggests to accept our destiny to only have one human life as nature intended, and to live it to the fullest. It claims our purpose is to give our contribution to the world and then give way for the next generations to do it better. Unfortunately, the script is superficial and despite many opportunities the acting is emotionless.

I know this is NOT an MTV Films-produced movie, but I was really not into Aeon Flux. My beloved MTV animated series that was short-lived and still one of the greatest cult classic shows of all time turned into a horrendous "Aeon"-like wannabe played by Charlize Theron. This film just really alienated the fans of the pop culture classic for good and with an action movie like this, I sorta fell asleep for like 10 minutes. Somewhere down the road in the future, I hope MTV could possibly thinking of a new idea to reboot the series. That would be so awesome! As for the Flux movie, save your money or rent it. I don't care, but this is one of the most ridiculous movies I've ever seen.… Expand

Aeon Flux is silly, boring, disappointing visually and lacks enough action along with an awful performance from Charlize Theron who at the time just won an Oscar. I give this film 4%.

Aeon Flux is a young woman living in a world safe from danger. 400 years ago a disease wipes out 99% of the human race. The 1% that remain live in a secure city away from the dangers of the outside world. But as a resistance begins to form against the oppressive government long kept secrets begin to show and it is time for humanity to accept its end.
The story is a great concept. however the poor execution in terms of poor directing, bad filming, a terrible cast and some really really awful CGI makes Aeon Flux a film that can be easily looked over.… Expand

I'm not sure if its appropriate to be writing a review for a movie I only watched for 10 minutes, but seeing as how its quality was the defining factor in only managing to last that long, I feel justified. The acting was awkward, dialogue also so. But primarily, nothing made sense. And I dont mean plot, I mean everything, from 400 years in the future and guards still carry guns and are horrible at guarding anything. That undercover rebels dress to stand out, and draw more attention than less to themselves by making out, then walking away. The premise of 99% of the world having been killed and all those left saved by Goodchild, and yet is more Big Brother than God. And the fact that daily poisons could hope to keep nature at bay. If you are going to take yourself so seriously, make sure you make sense.
The 1 point was for at least trying to have different fashion when compared to the modern day, something which is blatantly ignored far to much.… Expand
