The consensus seems to be that it walks the fine line between being a mesmerising feat of film-making and a very bad film. But really, it doesnt matter so long as everyone can agree on one thing: boy, those eyes are creepy. Alita: Battle Angel review lovestruck tweenies do battle in robot dystopia Read more Perhaps youve seen the trailer, and are aware that the film-makers have decided essentially to turn the lead character into a photorealistic manga creation, complete with distractingly large eyes that look as though director Robert Rodriguez shot the whole thing through the second-worst Snapchat filter. The character is played by Rosa Salazar, a human woman with regular human woman eyes. ![]() Theres a moment early in the films trailer when Alita says to her love interest: Does it bother you that Im not completely human Presumably he has been labouring under the misapprehension that she is somehow actually a giant Bratz doll that has been brought harrowingly to life by a malevolent wizard. ![]() Between trailer releases, her design changed from I am on drugs and I AM FREAKING OUT to I am just on drugs now. Its an improvement, but it still isnt enough to stop you from thinking of the 1999 PlayStation advert about the girl with the giant head. Perhaps Alita: Battle Angel will be the vanguard of new movies in which characters have massive eyes or tiny mouths or chins that have been deliberately altered to resemble genitalia. If thats the case, then I reluctantly accept all future mockery. But Im not sure. I only know that my excitement about watching Alita: Battle Angel has been almost entirely extinguished by the fact that the lead character looks like the result of a drunken bunk-up between a robot and a bush baby. Nevertheless, I hope it does well enough to secure a sequel, if only because I want to see the scene in which she gets grit in her eye and has to spend the entire second act getting it hosed out with Optrex.
