    It was the best there was in the 90s and 00s. It may look dated now, bit it didn't back then.

    CGI should compliment a scene not make up all of it unless you're doing something like Avatar.

    No it was not. It was actually revolutionary and a sort of experiment. If it was not for the risks that George Lucas made, at the behest of people sucha s Rob Coleman at ILM, we might not have the technology we have today in the VFX world

    There's nothing particularly wrong with it, but there's nothing particularly right with it either. It's like asking "what's wrong with a paintbrush?"

    Well nothing really and as Matisse shows us, it can be used to produce effective art, but alas as Batman vs. Superman showed us, it can also be used to produce pure evil soul-crushing, life-sucking cinema.
