This is one of those movies that works well as a novel, because your mind is too busy trying to imagine these concepts. However, once on the screen, you actually see all these things come to life, and now your mind is instead trying to make logic out of it.
1. The stakes are not clear (why are they trying to break the wall anyway?)
2. The Super-weapon makes no sense - "Old tech"??? What the fuck does that mean
3. The people of London are evil? Good? Ignorant? stuff that needed to be sorted out
Yeah, like how dissonant it is to have a setting that is 95% dieselpunk but still has high-powered energy energy weapons that fit on a fighter plane
The idea of the traction cities is stupid in most settings except one, Arknights, moving cities are justified by the fact that there are massive sod off storms that will obliterate people who hang around. Simple answer is when they crop up just move the city. If the big war left weird quantum storms everything would have made more sense, the league being an area isolated from such storms would have made sense how they can actually farm
I don't try to make sense of it. Like any other sci-fi, some are more fiction. It's only "science" because it has machines and electrical stuff. Otherwise why can't we have fiction?
@@modelsnstuffreveiws6628 actually the 60 minute war did fuck every up. Massive tectonic and volcanic activity at random. So their ancestors adopted a nomadic lifestyle and it developed into Traction Cities.
Nice to see Bobbie Draper still doing the whole "kamikaze'ing a massive ship that has a super powered doomsday weapon thing." Good for her.
Once a marine always a marine. A marine does their duty, even if it costs them their life.
London vs a transformer titan
Laconia forever !
And at the end she will....
I think a lot of people are missing (because it's not explicitly stated here) that London isn't really designed or trained for air warfare. The Anti-Traction League are basically the only faction that can use massed aircraft, and London isn't built to fight against them but rather to run down smaller, worse-armed cities. Before they had Medusa, London would almost certainly have never even considered trying to fight a similarly-sized city, let alone the entire League.
it was inexperienced aa gunners vs experienced pilots
Nerdsoft........... you nerd hard man.
So London is basically is like the giant German Landkruzer P-1000 "Ratte" super tank.
gibberish
It's just an excuse to help the main character win. why didn’t other cities just build a few aircraft?
With what tech? Like nerdsoft said London survives by devouring other cities, they don't have anyone developing new weapons and tech they just scavenge what they can to survive, like they did with the medusa.@@No_Moo_Hyun
The entire cast feels like they're in the wrong movie.
Blob
Blerp
Pmsl 😂
That’s because they are
I totally disagree. Hugo F'n Weaving is perfect in this film. They must have had to triple the scenery budget for the movie just to cover how much he chewed.
It's an awful film, but I got to miss out on most of it... I started watching when London first used the Zorchinator Prime on the walled city and I just got lost in the glorious trash that is Mortal Engines, Act III.
This is one of these movies that would have benefitted from its world building if it was adapted into a series rather than a movie.
Sad that we missed out on the Alliance of the german cities "Traktionstadtgesselschaft", the arctic traction city Arkangel and giant cities on rafts on water.
Also the films fails to even establish the timeline's most widespread world philosophy of municipal darwinism "predator - prey world" with the anti-traction league (ako the guys behind the wall who aims to destroy the traction cities in order to allow the world to heal itsel) actually being the "terrorists" of that time.
Not to mention of all the other god like weapons like ODIN etc.
While I wholeheartedly agree with this, I feel it also fell flat in other areas. The acting was... meh, and there were a few big shuffle and cuts that didn't work. They messed with the plot a lot, which is fairly prevalent in these sorts of things, or so I've noticed. It doesn't help that because of those plot adjustments, the future books wouldn't have worked anyway. Which is a pain.
And while ODIN wasn't introduced until later, as I recall, it would have helped a little if there was more setup and explanation behind the gargantuan megaweapon London just so happened to dig up. And as well as the rafts, Grimsby and its ilk would have been great to see. Unfortunately no such luck. Though the cities themselves were spectacular.
man if only netflix did this instead of crappy parodies and just rich people making movies for the sake of it
I actually think a film series would work well if it was faithful to the books. First off London isn’t nearly as big in the books as it is in the film it was described as being 8 tiers high, there is a traction city called Motoropolis it was sixteen tiers high. Also in the books London used the MEDUSA weapon to destroy a larger traction city that would have eaten it. I could go on but I’ll end my reply on this note. The movie would have worked if it followed the book
The mega-Hindenburg scene earlier makes up for it. 🎈🎈🎈🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥💥💥💥💥
Honestly I loved the idea that the major faction of Traction Cities in the war were an alliance of German towns. Because Germany is even today one of the largest industrial nations in Europe.
One thing feels off when you add a jet engine to an airframe that deliberately lowers your speed by a factor of 50%.
Bwab?
Who gives a shit its fucking awesome
factor of 50% would be 0.5, so actually an increase
@@oxlynz7328 Bruh what, it would be half of what it normally is
@@Luke_ Take out your calculator, enter a number, and then multiply by a factor of 0.5. That's what factor means. Check it if you don't believe me.
Bobbie Draper goes out like a Valkyrie in every franchise she’s in, apparently
Makes you wonder how London became so powerful in the first place if its defences can be taken out that easily.
Money
Because London is a city eater. And against other cities, that’s great. But against aircraft? You’re fucked
@@cadenvanvalkenburg6718 so why didn’t other cities just build a few aircraft?
I think they focused more on being able to consume cities, and fighting other cities. Similar to the dreadnought race being made obsolete by aircraft carriers.
Same thing people asked themselves about the British empire.
How did they get to be the largest empire in all of human history, yet a tiny island nation that can be easily over run?
So the stable anti-aircraft platform are designed and manned by secret ring of the most elite stormtroopers while some junkyard flying machines detect localize and hit-destroy any floodlight or AA platform over massive installation in mere microseconds of its activation.
Once your alfa-target is protected by human shield, your best option is to empty your precious remaining 3 rounds into that humans shield - so you have fair chance to ruin your one-in-lifetime-chance to win.
Sorry, I understand that movies cannot be based on logic and physics (and other laws of nature) but why they have to be built around absolute idiocy and anticommon sense?
Because otherwise they would lose. If it makes you feel better the book was not nearly as dumb.
Like this isn't even how it goes in the book because the writer of the book thought like you do Mungo, London isn't armed apart from Medusa in the book and is about 100 miles away from the shield wall when it's prepping to fire. Anna fang is dead and large aerial cruisers that where going to go out to bomb london are smouldering wrecks thanks to valentine. Also the mayor is still alive because Valentine isn't just a 1D character in the book, and the mayor is the main villain.
@@zacharyhartleben3526 Exactly wrong. One of the most important rules in Sci-Fi and Fantasy is that once a ruleset for the universe is established, you have to obey it. Further, people's decisions and choices have to make sense; that the audience can understand why the character would do as they have.
It’s almost like, now here me out. It’s easier to hit something that’s bright and stationary over something that’s dark and moving.
The gravity in this movie is weak lol
I feel like without the power of plot armour they would have been blown out of the sky with the first salvo.
That explains why this scene doesn’t occur in the book
Nah, it can happen in real life
Like in Midway for example.
Nope. Gun based AA in WW2 was really inaccurate. If the guns aren’t computer controlled this is the result.
this movie had so much potential, beautiful cgi, amazing world, all it had to do was be good...
It needed to be 2 or 3 movies long but they couldnt secure the sequels so it all got cobbled into 1.
hwhhehehehehahehhehe real
Should've kept the book ending
I don't care if the movie is bad or not.This scene was awesome
That direct hit from an AA gun shoulda turned the flowing blonde hair pilot into pink mist though. Really dropped the ball there.

Interesting that city of that size do not have its own air force to defend itself.
good bloody point! I never thought of that..
It’s a holdover from the book, where London is only about 0.4 miles long (vs roughly 2 miles in the film).
In the book, the Anti Traction League are the only faction to maintain any form of airforce, and it’s sabotaged in its hangers. Fang also dies in this attack. London is essentially defenceless, just with a very powerful weapon, and is only making this charge out of absolute desperation (in the book, we see why; London is very much not top dog, some cities are over a mile long, and one of them chases London, forcing them to use Medusa in self defence. It’s then no longer a surprise weapon, and they need to use it before the League can adapt or launch a preemptive strike).
The Jenny is the only airship that makes the attack, and it isn’t even an attack, just dropping off Hester. Tom shoots down the 13th Floor Elevator, which crashes and causes a fire, and then a minor scuffle in the control room causes a computer crash in Medusa, which, lacking targeting, just discharges into London, destroying it.
But I guess the final battle of the film consisting of two airships shooting inaccurate rockets at eachother, and one swing of a sword (which doesn’t even hit its intended target) wasn’t very cinematic, so we got Star Wars instead.
@@HALLish-jl5mo if you have to read a book for the movie to make sense the movie failed immensely.
@@HALLish-jl5moThe call to attack Shan Guo made also more sense in the book since London was terrified of the larger German complexes that had the armaments and size to devour them.
The premise for this movie seems more and more flimsy as it goes on. They have massively powerful reactors creating enormous amounts of electricity, they have resources. The best use of all of them would be to park and build around it
It is described in the book in such a way that, according to them, staying still is a bad and forbidden thing
A good film doesn't have to follow real logic, but it does follow it's own.
A bad film doesn't even follow it's own logic.
Can you tell where Mortal Engines falls under?
It's a bad film that doesn't follow real logic, but it follows It's own
So it doesn't fall anywhere with what you said
@@SchwabGames2014 If what I said was wrong, why is it upvoted?
The film is full of contradictions with itself and does not follow it's own logic at all.
@@STEPHENDANERD it does follow it's own logic, hence why it failed. They made the movie with no regards to the book, and didn't make sense with the actual story. The logic of cities being built on wheels, and copying Star Wars was all on it's own.
Basically it's own logic is: We have to stop meals on wheels from tearing down a wall with a laser beam!
Conpare the movie to the book(which actually does make logical sense to the audience/readers) it makes sense that "it's a bad film, that follows it's own logic"
@@STEPHENDANERD what you said is not wrong, it's just the movie is so bad that it doesn't even belong in the two categories for bad, and good movies you set up.
It's just there in between. That's why it failed.
This would be alot better as a series instead of a movie
That girl press the buttons slower than me typing homework while being sleep deprived and out of ideas
This scene made me feel totally like playing Sine Mora, and I don't care what everyone says, I like this movie!
Everyone is talking about the film, but the idea of this clip is to show how amazing it looks.
Looks aren't everything.
This looked like the most ridiculous premise in the trailer. My instincts didn’t fail me. Lots of polished looking fashionable coifed haired attractive young people are soldiers fighting in a world of mobile cities using enormous amounts of resources to drive around and find resources.
In setting it’s noted by people who are reasonably intelligent that the Traction system ISN’T sustainable. That “prey” is becoming rarer and rarer. The whole point of the first book was that London was going to breach the wall, and gobble up all the protected statics to feed itself for a few more years.
The books are amazing!
truly. the movie really doesn't do the original books justice in my opinion
Correct me if I'm wrong, but the lady who pulled the kamikaze, wasn't she Bobby Draper in The Expanse series?
That's her.
That one pilot had lip fillers in the apocalypse😂
Stormtroopers must be manning the city guns!🤣😂🤣😂🤣😂
I feel like this movie had more potential then let on...
I can't imagine the sound having something as big as London go rolling by you like at 4:08
Yo Universal if you need someone who can make actual good thumbnails, hit me up. jesus christ....

Это че мазафака 40к референс?
how does 40k apply here again?
So an entire city worth of guns versus......3 fighter planes?
Guns platform the size of a tower mind you, and it can't track 3 stupid slow-ass fighter planes.
@@Yayaloy9 I suppose and tracking can be difficult (tracers are a god's grace for accuracy) but the fact none of them got hit just seemed very bizarre
I love how Anna is just kinda chill
So why didn't they start shooting lower on the wall?
I guess they wanted to create a passage for the city
That looks like a poorman's Star Wars.
It's quite in par with sequels of star wars.
@@KermitTheArchitect I wouldn't really call that a compliment
@@jmun3688 That's the neat part. It's not.
@@KermitTheArchitect damn that was a fast reply for something you wrote like 3 months ago lol
@@jmun3688 I was watching some other bullshit roflmao
Am I the only one who actually liked this movie?
loved it visually...but story wise..it was a little meh for my tastes. but I do hope a sequel is made, it has lots of potential.
Pretty much yeah, judging from the success of the film. It was pretty bad to be fair.
No. I thought it was better than what most people were saying.
I haven't read the books, I really enjoyed the film.
@@thecunninlynguist movie underperformed so no sequel
I already watch this many times i like to watch again. Any one like to watch this again too?
The city was moving at or over 100 mph...wouldn't standing outside in the city while moving at that speed feel like a Cat 2 hurricane constantly blowing?
Here comes Agent Smith with the Metal Storm pistol in his pocket wow
The thumbnail is hilarious! Did someone make it terrible on purpose?
Geezus how bad are their aim in firing a gun😖🤌
I bet that there are mens at it
Why didn't they just fire at the dome?
Maybe it'll expload and Tom and there leader doesn't want to hurt citizens
@@verifiedyoutubers1214 in the novel the thing literally blew up and annihilated the entire city lmao
@@CarlosAM1 lol I would have Kamikazed into the annoying civilians or blasted a few of them.
Why this movie is underated? I think this is a masterpiece
Discount star wars?
*THUMBNAIL MAKE ME TO CLICK IN MICRO SEC WITHOUT THINKING*
The books were just so much better.
This really is a Steampunk Star Wars, wow. =|
Man I really hate that cliche of "what's the signal?" Followed by "you'll know". Just once I'd like to see that conversation play out like that and then the person wholly and completely miss the signal because they were over thinking it.
Is that thumbnail Chrissy Teigan reacting to her old tweets being dug up and thrown at her?
Yoooooo TRUE!
EPIC SCENE
And that quality, just crazy on my Macbook Pro 16" thank you!!
Sergeant draper always goes down with stile
Directors mind was going in toilet for potty and now potty is here😂😂
That USA to MEDUSA was 👌🏻
😂😂😂👍👍👍👍
Praise the LORD for creating cool grasslands.
I forgot i already watch this movie
Just read the book and this scene is so much less meaningful in the movie. You don’t get valentine’s character development. You don’t get the sacrifices and random carnage of ware and traction city life
I tried so hard to like this movie, I really did. On paper, it sounds like it should be a blast. But in practice, something about it just doesn't work. The future computer technology and the steampunk aesthetic clash constantly in a way that ruins the whole illusion, and every plot point, every character, every decision, feels like an imitation of something out of a different movie (let's be honest, 90% of it is Star Wars stuff). The world just doesn't feel believable. On a surface level, if you described them in one sentence, this movie sounds similar to Mad Max: Fury Road, but the experience of watching them couldn't be more different despite the shared post-apocalyptic, vehicle-centric setting. This movie manages to get wrong just about everything that Fury Road got right. It's sad, really - Mortal Engines did have an interesting premise, and it had the potential to be so much better. It just feels like a movie that has doesn't have anything to say. It's like a dozen other blockbuster sci-fi movies were mixed up in a blender and dumped out into two hours of sound and fury, signifying nothing.
London never misses a chance to reenact the Battle of Brittain.
So it's an extended and updated version of the Crimson Permanent Assurance scene from the Meaning of Life? :)
What is the name of the scene
I see Bobbie Draper on the thumbnail, I clicks.
30 seconds to put 6 fkin numbers into a machine ,no wonder this film failed
London has worse aim than the stormtroopers.
They should have London win! Terrible ending
Whoever made that thumbnail needs to go to jail
It appears that UA-cam values ads over your clip. I have attempted clicking almost a dozen times and keep getting ads. I am unable to watch this clip.
Lol u get adds much loser
Such stupidity.
3:50 Why kamikaze? Was everyone out of ammo? I didn't hear that.
4:19 She was going to attack a fortified location unarmed.
5:06 Apparently she did have ammo. So again why kamikaze?
5:49 Why can't you wait?
6:06 Stop wasting limited ammo, he's got a meat shield!
6:20 Again, why not wait?
7:41 You deserved that. You disarmed him and instead of finishing him you stand and look somewhere else for 15 seconds.
7:58 Why is it taking that long to input a single number? It doesn't take even 6 seconds to input 6 digits.
9:33 They still have cannons and a giant hole in that wall.
I'm glad I didn't waste money going to see this.
I love this movie!❤
I want a part 2 of this movieeeeee
Your mediocrity is showing.
@@medstud what’s that?
This is one of those movies that would be a whole lot better if the book it was adapted from didn't exist and the film was an original idea, but if that truly were the case we'd be robbed of a really good novel.
It's like if someone actually built the ratte and tried to fight Alien saucers with it
they got the sound straight out of V10 engine lolll
i actually wanted London to win.
Hugo weaving does that to me.
same as his role as mr. Smith. I wanted him to win lol

Waaait, did they change the thumbnail for this or something in the last 5 months? Because people are talking about how terrible it is, but I just see a regular UA-cam thumbnail??
It's good that they're making movies for toddlers 🌝

Alot of people trash this movie, "not like the book"... Not all stories are meant to be re-written into film, but it would have done better if not for all the people who WHINE about its not matching the book word for word.... Its still a good flick on its own, and should have been given a sequel, that would have taken the story off in directions never imagined in the book,
