"I loved everything about this movie except for one thing, and it's a pretty big gripe. I absolutely HATED that they cast Dane DeHaan as the lead in this movie!!! It's the perfect example of sending a boy to do a man's job. Expecting the audience to believe that DeHaan is supposed to be a seasoned operative is a huge ask. He looks like a child. Especially when he is cast opposite someone like Clive Owen.
Other than that, I loved the special effects, the story, the action, and the imagination put into the world building for this project. But I feel that the reason why it didn't do better at the box office is mainly because of DeHaan. He's just not the guy to carry a project of this magnitude.
