So far, Jupiter Ascending has a 37 percent rating on Rotten Tomatoes. Eleven crtics think it is fresh, while nineteen think it is rotten. I gotta be honest, I thought this film was going to be pulverized by critics, but 37 percent isn't as terrible as I thought it was going to receive. Although, it is still early. I guess it isn't the complete hot mess the trailers and television spots made it out to seem. The film opens this weekend. How many of you will see it?
Channing Tatum and Mila Kunis star in "Jupiter Ascending," an original science fiction epic adventure from filmmakers Lana and Andy Wachowski. Jupiter Jones (Kunis) was born under a night sky, with signs predicting that she was destined for great things. Now grown, Jupiter dreams of the stars but wakes up to the cold reality of a job cleaning other people's houses and an endless run of bad breaks. Only when Caine (Tatum), a genetically engineered ex-military hunter, arrives on Earth to track her down does Jupiter begin to glimpse the fate that has been waiting for her all along—her genetic signature marks her as next in line for an extraordinary inheritance that could alter the balance of the cosmos. From the streets of Chicago to far flung galaxies whirling through space, "Jupiter Ascending" is written and directed by the Wachowskis.
