a step in the right direction but allot of things are still mid.
lets get the obvious out the way:the humans suck as characters, its not even because they're human but because they don't use them very well.
john cena was the best character but he was in it a little portion of it.
haillee steinfeld performance was actually really mediocre tbh, her acting was all over the place in the movie. especially in the emotional moments because the way she delivers her lines is very akward and weird.
