Visually very fascinating and what a wildly enjoyable ride it is - the perfect example of practical movie making outclassing the CGI variety - would've liked to have seen a bit more attention to detail when it came to directing talent and constructing characters, however. This film, I would assume, basically wrote the book in terms of genre tropes (specifically character archetypes), but I've always thought that that was too bad. I would have much preferred it, along with many others it inspired, if the characters were just a little more important in the overall scheme of things.
