People are making a big deal about the giant eyes, but she’s not supposed to be a real person. She’s a cyborg with a human brain inside. So the big eye thing really didn’t bother me at all. People are also picking on the hokey dialogue and the love story, but it kind of needs the love story; without her humanity, it would just be another typical cyborg robot thing. If you remotely liked films like “Elysium” or “Ghost In The Shell” then this is better IMO.

Saw it in IMAX 3D with some rewards money from AMC. The big eyes were weird. Wished they would have went normal sized. It was distracting for a non-anime fanboy. State of the art CGI for sure. Very well done tech. You can see some Avatar/Cameron involvment in the movie. The story wasn't unique or plotted well. I think it needed more humanity. Go for the state of the art CGI or forget this one.
