Like Rodriguez's previous, mature-themed, actioneers "El Mariachi" (1992), "Desperado" (1995), "From Dusk Till Dawn" (1996), "The Faculty" (1998), "Once Upon A Time in Mexico" (2003), "Planet Terror" (2007), "Machete" (2010), "Machete Kills" (2013), and "Sin City: A Dame to Kill For" (2014), "Alita: Battle Angel" qualifies as a triumph of style over substance. Dyson Ido (Christoph Waltz of "Inglourious Basterds"), a bespectacled cyberphysician, rescues her remains, and then revives this 300-year old combatant. The eponymous heroine is a formidable cyborg warrioress, abandoned to rust on a scrap heap, who fears nobody and nothing. The action unfolds in the year 2563, after an Armageddon referred to as "The Fall," otherwise known as "The Great War," has devastated Earth. "Sin City" director Robert Rodriguez's manga-inspired, post-apocalyptic, science fiction, cyberpunk, origin epic "Alita: Battle Angel" is a spectacular, but predictable fantasy extravaganza set in the dystopian future of the 26th century.

And that is where Alita's true significance comes to bear. But to accomplish her true purpose, she must fight and kill. She is the one being who can break the cycle of death and destruction left behind from Tiphares. She cannot remember who she is, or where she came from. Ido while trolling for cyborg parts, Alita becomes a lethal, dangerous being. Alita is a creation from an age of despair.
