Can’t tell if that is supposed to be a dark comedy or a drama, even after watching the trailer.

This is the strangest remake I’ve ever seen. Nothing looked like an airport terminal. And maybe it’s just me but Margot Robbie is no Tom Hanks.

Dexter Flecther gets third billing. Says everything right there. Looks stylish, but little else. Mike Myers is even odder looking now than he was before. Margot Robbie is incredibly hot.

Isn’t it a little soon to reuse a title? And it’s not like it’s some obscure film that they are reusing.

Um... the film was The Terminal.... this is just Terminal.
And it was almost 15 years ago.

One more thing about this trailer I noticed...the film must have been financed by the tobacco industry.
I can't remember a recent movie trailer that has so much in it.

Just to be that one guy that takes a comment and makes a general defensive statement. More and more VOD movies are getting solid reviews these days (The Escape is at 92%, Revenge is at 89%).
Obviously, this is not one of them.

Just watched it and I don't understand the low scores especially that BS 14% on RT. The movie was pretty damn cool.

A strange movie.
Much to like, much to dislike.
It promises much, but doesn't really deliver in the way one might expect.
The Blade Runner noirish visuals were nice, but derivative.
The plot unfolds(?) VERY slowly...WAY too slowly IMO.
Just not mysterious enough to keep me in the game for a couple of hours.
Acting wise, Margot Robbie chews up the scenery like no one's business.
Simon Pegg puts on his non-comedic face to decent affect.
Mike Myers is nearly unrecognizable.
Also, this movie appears to have been made by the British Tobacco Manufacturers Association.
Every scene is an excuse for someone (or 3) to light up a cancer stick.
Anyway, I made it an hour before pressing the EJECT Button.
