Aeon Flux (2005)
Academy Award-winner Charlize Theron stars as Aeon Flux, the underground operative fighting totalitarian rule in 25th-century Earth's last living city.

But while on assignment to gun down the government's leader, Aeon uncovers a web of startling secrets that could completely change the world's future in this gripping sci-fi action thriller based on the ground-breaking MTV animated series.

Infuriatingly wasted oppurtunity
This could have been great. The concept was good as was the story. The film looked evry cent of its undoubtedly high budget. But acting was poor, pacing non-existent and there was no soul to the film. Yes, it was based on a cartoon - a 2d format - but what was the point in making a film if you weren't going to make a cinematic, involving movie? Annoyingly bad movie.

Barbarella meets Kill Bill.
Based on the Peter Chung' animated series, this film cleverly succeeds in translating the strange and abstract world of Aeon Flux in a feature length film. The story is great with some clever plot twists, but what's most amazing about the film is its heavily stylised look, packed with surreal images and some intense and unique action sequences. Overall, 'Aeon Flux' is a highly creative and original piece of intelligent sci-fi and well worth a look.
