I haven't seen the movie yet - will wait for it on download but I just have one thing to say - What the fuck were they thinking casting 55 year old Cate Blanchett as 22 Year Old Lilith?

Probably some kind of commentary how male action leads are lauded even when they're pushing 60, so they tried to be 'equitable' by doing the same with a woman. Going by the review scores, I can only assume it didn't have an equal outcome.
They did the same thing with The Nigger Mermaid. They couldn't even find a young, pretty black girl to steal the role of Ariel, no, they had to use someone who was all that 40 years ago instead.
I think you're confusing Hallie Bailey with Halle Berry
Ah, ok. Well, the CGI is so fugly ...
So's Bailey.
Old men trying to do believable action scenes is also cringe. Unless, of course, they decide to bring back spaghetti westerns, where looking like a leathery old bastard is a bonus.
Hugh Jackman is 55 and he was in as top form in the latest Deadpool movie as he's ever been.
