"is there enough story substance to merit the expense?"
I think that is what the movies critics are knocking this film about.
My take:
It feels like there is this very large world that this story exists within but we the viewers are taken into it without adequate introduction. So we, just like Jupiter Jones, experience it cold.
It feels like a comic book story. Or should I say; yet another comic book story turned into a movie.
At least it doesn't dwell into that good versus evil message as did the Star Wars films. Although there is plenty of evil, even those characters we eventually root for have been thoroughly corrupted by the society they come from. Not all is pretty within.
