Agree. Great visuals, decent story, subpar acting. No chemistry between the leads.
I love Blade Runner. It seems that all dystopian movies and TV that followed irritatingly copy BR's take on urban scenes. Asian signs, 3D holographic building sized ads. I just started watching Altered Carbon and they do the exact same thing. They had a lot of money so it looked decent.
"the reason I like 5th Element so much is the LOOK" It also had better acting, chemistry, humor.
On the thread of copying things, I tried watching Dark Matter. They're copying everyone. They copied the Firefly cast without the wit and charm.
