The Creator is a visually lush, well performed, futuristic drama wrapped around a lovey story.

I liked aspects of it, mostly the visuals... It's just too bad the story was derivative and seemed to crib from so many other sci-fi epics.

The main question about "The Creator" is: How has a movie this good and this big arrived in theaters with so little fanfare?

It’s rare that a film makes me want to take an angry nap in the middle of it, so I genuinely have to hand it to The Creator for achieving this feeling in me not once, but twice.
