If you're not a fan of pulp you're not going to like the movie. If you like old serials and don't need to be spoonfed the concepts behind them the movie is gold. The robots all climbed out of '30s cartoons, as did the sets and vehicles.

They went overboard on the "I am woman, hear me roar" aspect of Polly Perkins and kept referring to World War I as World War I - World War II was barely on the horizon, why the hell would they be calling it that?

The CGI served to make it look like a mix of cartoon and old film stock used for serials. It was perfect.

It's not a movie for everyone, most people aren't going to appreciate what makes the genre special.
