In the Lost Lands, directed by Paul W.S. Anderson and based on a George R.R. Martin short story, stars Milla Jovovich as Gray Alys and Dave Bautista as Boyce—paired in a bleak, post-apocalyptic fantasy-meets-western quest. Visually, the film is striking, featuring surreal landscapes, gothic magic, and metal-infused, dark fairy-tale aesthetics that are occasionally compelling people.com+15vulture.com+15decider.com+15. However, it falters in execution: the CGI-heavy production feels artificial and overbearing, dialogue is clunky, pacing slackens, and the lead performances lack chemistry
