Is it supposed to be a comedy?
Review of Aeon Flux DVD by l-m-n-o-p

Advantages: I suppose it did look fantastic
Disadvantages: The acting is dreadful, the action is boring, it makes no sense...

Aeon Flux. It's very rare that I see a film I hate (only Cutthroat Island and Battlefield Earth have ever received one star from me), but in this absolutely awful sci-fi action flick, we have another. Maybe the fact that I had just seen the brilliant Crash biased my judgement, but I couldn't help feeling that in the same day I had watched the best and worst film of the last year. As soon as the credits said it was an MTV production I knew we were ...
...why. Charlize Theron plays Aeon Flux, who in the year 2415, decides to stand up to the ruler of a utopian city, Bregna, which is Earth's last populated city after a virus wiped out 99% of the population 400 years back. You see, she is a member of an organisation called the Monicans, who are sick of living in this seemingly perfect world, and see it as little more than a gilded cage. When the government murders her sister, Aeon's life is dedicated ... Read review

Aeon Flush
Review of Aeon Flux DVD by afy9mab

Advantages: It won't make its budget back
Disadvantages: Where do I start?!?

...city's leaders. Her name is Aeon Flux, an acrobatic assassin out for revenge against the men she blames for her sister's death. Since the departure of the Sigourney Weaver's Ripley, cinema has been crying out for another female action heroine. But from the look of this nonsensical bucket of tripe, it will have to wait a while longer. So what went wrong? All the elements are here; director Karyn Kusama was at the helm of critically-acclaimed "GIrlfight" ...
...to a product recall. When Aeon says at the climax "Now we can move forwards", you want to add "because now there isn't a dirty great wall in the way!" In fact some of the script is so risible that you might actually find yourself slapping your forehead in disbelief. The plot twists are similarly laughable; the "surprise" bad guy may as well be carrying a flashing neon sign declaring himself as such. At least he has a clear goal, unlike the majority ...

What the Flux have they done?
Review of Aeon Flux DVD by Ailran

Advantages: Johnny Lee Miller back in action is about it!
Disadvantages: Everything else is just cliched and awful!

Aeon Flux started as a series of short animated episodes on MTV where a gun toting, black catsuit wearing female killed just about everyone in sight before, invariably, dying at the end of the story. This format turned out to be very successful and Aeon Flux moved on to 20 minute stories which allowed a bit more story but still pretty much followed the same idea. Bullets flying everywhere as the acrobatic woman killed a virtual army of bad guys! ...
...woman, now given the name Aeon Flux. In 2011 99% of the worlds population is killed by a virus, Trevor Goodchild discovers a cure and builds a city to house all those who have survived. The city is called Bragna, is populated by 5 million people and 400 years later is considered a paradise city, at least by most of inhabitants anyway. There are those that don't agree though, The Monicans, as they are called, don't think that the Goodchild dynasty, ... Read review

Advantages: Special effects, unpresictable storyline
Disadvantages: Weak story and poor acting

...tele. Eventually he picked out Aeon Flux. I'm not really a film person so I had no idea what it was about let alone whether it would be any good. Background - Before Aeon Flux In 2011 a terrible virus wipes out 99% of the world's population and only 5million people survive. A world renowned scientist develops a cure for this terrible disease and founds the city of Bregna. The world outside turns into uncontrollable wilderness and so a wall is built ...
...problem under control. Aeon Flux There is an uprising against the government in 2415. The monicans, including Aeon Flux, do all they can to free people of the oppression of the government of Bregna. They try to answer the questions of why so many people are going missing and why nobody else asks any questions. One day after Aeon is sent "blind" government surveillance her sister is killed and she swears revenge on the people behind it; she assumes ... Read review

Advantages: Charlize Theron kills people with her thighs
Disadvantages: The acting is more wooden than Camberwick Green

...they once rightly dominated. Aeon Flux (Charlize Theron) is the agent assigned with the task of assassinating Trevor Goodchild (Marton Csokas). Equipped with an intimate knowledge of how to kill a man with her bare thighs, Flux sets out on her mission with the aid of her trusted friend, Sithandra (Sophie Okonedo), a human hybrid who’s modified her feet to be another pair of hands to help her move about more swiftly. Having crossed the border from ...
...crossing lawns of grass that instantly turn to deadly spikes and tasty-looking fruit that fire poisonous darts at intruders, Flux comes face-to-face with Goodchild – and the truth of humanity’s situation is revealed. Physically unable to kill Goodchild no matter how hard she tries, it turns out that in curing the disease and saving five million humans, the scientist inadvertently sterilised the whole population and has spent the past four hundred ...

DVD Description

Karyn Kusama, the writer-director of GIRLFIGHT, the story of a tough female boxer, turns her attentions to a tough female superhero in AEON FLUX. Based on a series of animated shorts that aired on MTV, the live-action feature film version stars Charlize Theron, in jet black hair, as the secret agent of the title. Aeon Flux is a Monican who has been ordered to assassinate Trevor Goodchild (Martin Csokas), the leader of Bregna a futuristic walled city that is the last vestige of humanity on 25th-Century earth. But a long-buried memory prevents her from killing him, ultimately making both of them targets. As Trevor battles his brother, Oren (Jonny Lee Miller), for control of Bregna, Aeon seeks revenge for the murder of her sister (Amelia Warner) while also being hunted down by her former partner, Sithandra (Sophie Okonedo). At the centre of it all is a secret that threatens to tear everything apart. Theron, who performed most of her own stunts, glides through the film in barely-there outfits, while also jumping, running, slinking, diving, and cartwheeling her way through dangerous situations, recalling the gorgeous movements made by the animated version. The film alternates between stark gray-and-white sets and brilliant splashes of red, green, and yellow, adding a vibrancy that befits a cartoon adaptation. The taut script, by Phil Hay and Matt Manfredi (who previously teamed up on CRAZY/BEAUTIFUL), delves deep into the relationships of siblings that often border between love and hate. Graeme Revell's smart score never overwhelms the action, which involves a lot of automatic weapons, and Oscar winner Frances McDormand and Oscar nominee Pete Postlethwaite feature in small roles.
