Titan A.E. (3- stars)

Titan A.E. PosterThere is one long scene set among enormous crystals in space and another of a high-speed chase through orbs of “hydrogen trees” that are beautiful, memorable, and may be all I really needed. Otherwise, a so-so story.

I’m always amazed that anyone imagines technology capable of destroying or creating an entire planet, though we see that time and time again. Terra-forming an existing planet is ambitious enough. (And fraught with peril, per Firefly.) I couldn’t not think of Matt Damon when I heard his voice, whereas the other voices remained anonymous despite belonging to familiar actors.
