Alita: Battle Angel offers a wildly entertaining cinema experience, but the film struggles to overcome its overstuffed and often predictable script.

In the latest episode of Kieran's Movie Space, Kieran delivers his spoiler-free review of Alita: Battle Angel, the latest sci-fi film from director Robert Rodriguez and producer James Cameron.

About Alita: Battle Angel:

Set several centuries in the future, the abandoned Alita (Rosa Salazar) is found in the scrapyard of Iron City by Ido (Christoph Waltz), a compassionate cyber-doctor who takes the unconscious cyborg Alita to his clinic. When Alita awakens, she has no memory of who she is, nor does she have any recognition of the world she finds herself in. As Alita learns to navigate her new life and the treacherous streets of Iron City, Ido tries to shield her from her mysterious past.

Alita: Battle Angel stars Rosa Salazar, Christoph Waltz, Mahershala Ali, Jennifer Connelly, Ed Skrein and Keean Johnson.
