This movie deserves more recognition but will sadly be forgotten since Disney forgot to give it a sufficient marketing budget.
John Carter is a weird movie, I'll admit that. But it introduces us to a new world and supernatural elements that we would've never thought about. The movie is a genuinely sweet love film of a protagonist trying to find those who he lost.
The world introduced (in this case, Mars) is a unique planet full of strange creatures and things that don't make sense. Does that matter? Not any more than Harry Potter or Star Wars makes sense.
The plot was well done and enjoyable to watch. The set design was fabulous.
This could have easily been a blockbuster if Disney didn't set it up for failure from the getgo.
4.5/5. Deserves more recognition.
