It's been woefully mismarketed from the start, but Devin's review does give me hope that this will be a fun , Saturday matinee type of movie. I didn't love John Carter, but I liked it a whole lot.

Victor tries to hide his creation, but Sparky gets out and causes havoc in the town." What is surprising is that both Johnny Depp and Helena Bonham-Carter are nowhere to be [...]
