This actually looks better than I expected. I anticipate it to have good visuals and to possibly be worth watching. And there are some redeeming aspects to the storyline; isn’t it fundamentally about taking heroic responsibility and doing what is necessary in the face of an existential threat? Now there’s also all sorts of other luggage it’s pulling around (wait, isn’t the existential threat being caused by the one who’s asking him to alleviate it?).
Daren Aaronofsky has done some good and rather intense films in the past (Pi, Black Swan, The Wrestler, Requiem for a Dream). He’ll likely make it at least powerful if not meaningful.
