Rob Margolies did a great job in assembling a cast that has the chemistry to work together to make Lifelines a memorable experience. Under his direction, events that could have been labeled too contrived to be believable, clearly portray a family en route to destruction, with a glimmer of hope ending....
if your're looking for a nearly 3 hour trip to a alternative future that evokes images of the famous and infamous from the not too distant past you've come to the right place.
The characters are true to the DC original and fit well into their recreated NY setting. The score effectively complements the action.
Better than I expected.....I can't get the good vs evil theme out of my mind...from the dark scenes and vivid colors to the ferry riders' decisions... the theme is repeated... The Orchestration complemented rather than over imposed on the action sequences... OH!... and the acting and direction were great... The best movie of the year (to date).. HL deserves a supporting actor award...
