Not Even Close To What It Should Have Been
This movie had so much potential and it was completely wasted. To land such a talent like Tony Jaa and Milla Jovovich and completely squander them on a half baked story is utterly disappointing.
Coming from the stand point of a Monster Hunter fan who has been playing the series for about 10 years now, this is not the movie the series deserved. It should have been set in the Monster Hunter world to begin with, and stayed there. This whole, our world comes into their world and visa versa is not necessary. All the elements for making a good Monster Hunter movie were right there, they just weren't utilized.
Hopefully if we do get a sequel they will approve on some things and make it a little more palatable for fans and newcomers alike.
