Agree, I did not want to see it to begin with.

But it was not at all what I expected. The plot meanders all over the place, including themes of climate change, human selfishness, and classism. It doesn't address any of them well, and then after 2.5 hours of dragged out mini-plots, ends abruptly with no real feeling of resolution. If you go in expecting the film to focus on the quirks that would surely accompany being a miniaturized human being (a la "Honey I Shrunk The Kids"), I suppose you will be surprised, but not really in a good way.

It's just a bad film.
