Disney’s sci-fi _John Carter_ has landed online.*
An odd hybrid of low-key music cues and sheeny visuals, _Carter_ looks
entirely unique, fusing high camp with the promise of soaring
excitement.
As the titular hero, Taylor Kitsch seems to have raided the playbox
for an old He-Man outfit (nippletastic!), but pairing that campy
costume with a steely glare (and a few layers of grub) ensures he
makes for a potentially winning lead.
Based on the novel by Edgar Rice Burroughs, _Carter_ follows the
eponymous hero, who’s mystically transported to Mars after
collapsing on Earth.
There, he discovers he has superhuman powers – which is handy
considering he’s just landed in the middle of a Martian war.
This first teaser really is a tease. Its Middle Eastern garb recalls
the underwhelming _Prince Of Persia_, but the special effects look
truly stunning.
It's a bit too early to tell if this is going to be as good as it
thinks it is, but those early signs are definitely promising.
Check it out for yourself…
_John Carter_ opens 9 March 2012.
