08 May Jupiter Ascending Review

Expand Your Universe

From the creators of The Matrix triology comes the science fiction epic adventure film, Jupiter Ascending, starring Mila Kunis and Channing Tatum. Jupiter Jones (Mila Kunis) was born under a star-filled sky with signs predicting that she was destined for greatness. As she grows up, she realizes her life is far from what was expected until a genetically engineered ex-military hunter, Caine (Channing Tatum), introduces her to her fate. Jupiter’s genetic makeup marks her as the chosen one of extraordinary inheritance that could alter the balance of the solar system altogether.

Lovers of aesthetically pleasing costumes and intense special effects will be most entertained by Jupiter Ascending. In order to create a wardrobe fit for the cosmos, it took over 1.3 million Swarovski crystals to create each embellished costume. Outfits go as far as using 3D technology to stand out, such as Jupiter’s floral dress that appears to be actually blossoming. Special effects are not only focused on the garments, but throughout the entire film. With spaceships that look like flying robotic spiders floating through the universe, gravity boots that you must see to believe, and aliens that appear as mythological creatures, this is a movie that definitely had the viewer’s creative interest in mind!
