** - This video game-based movie starring Thomas Jane is in the genre of what the kids these days call ‘steampunk’, meaning a mixture of futuristic techno stuff and 1800’s railroad-type stuff. Frankly, I find the whole idea behind that sort of thing to be logically specious, at best. In any event, besides the flaws endowed upon this movie by its ‘steampunk’ association, it was pretty lame. Lots of big, goofy machines shooting stuff with dialogue consisting mostly of things like “Run!” and “Let’s Go!”
