IMHO, just about everything in this movie fails because it goes overboard. By trying to draw attention to it's "unique" CGI effects, which weren't all that special to begin with, it becomes a pretentious muddled farce. So many things which probably looked good on paper failed in execution: the sepia toned faux-deco period appearance just comes across looking bland and ...ummm "faux", unsympathetic performances without benefit of any chemistry between the principals (i.e., they could've at least used rotary phones rather than cellular to dial in their performances!), and a lackluster story which relied waaaaay too much on CGI effects in lieu of a sustainable plot, etc.
