I hated the movie.
While the soundtrack was phenomenal, everything else was below average (and some were far below).
First off, the acting was atrocious. Most of the characters were bland and generic and by watching their first minute on-screen you could tell who they'd be and what they'd do.
Second, the dialog was horrible.

It felt like I was watching a 3-hour fan-fiction about gigantic dinosaurs that come out of the water.
Even the action (which was probably the movie's strongest point, aside from the score) was sub-par. Most of the fights felt slow. I know this is due to the Jagger's immense size, but that doesn't mean it makes it any more interesting.
Overall, I give the movie a 5.5/10. Fantastic soundtrack, but with shitty dialog and worse acting, I'm surprised so many people went to see this.

What lol?

I'm correcting you. He didn't say canceling, he said cancer.
-
Are you sure? I'm pretty sure he said "canceling"
-
He's from the UK, so i'm guessing his accent made it seem like that. The word Cancer for me was clear as day for myself and everyone I know who saw it.

Regardless, I still think it was a really lame line.
