This movie had Mads Mikkelsen wandering around in the most pimping fur coat and yet somehow I was bored.
An $125 million studio movie about a human colony on a distant planet of retro-futuristic “McCabe & Mrs. Miller” cosplayers where every man’s internal monologue loudly emanates from his head like overlapping speaker feedback in a synesthesiac cloud of “Noise” so intense that you can see it take shape on screen (and where every woman was killed in a recent war with the indigenous species of humanoid monsters), “Chaos Walking” could’ve and should’ve been the most arrestingly unusual sci-fi blockbuster since “Cloud Atlas.”

My internal thoughts on CHAOS WALKING...
