Watch it—this is pure visual spectacle with a genuinely bonkers premise (mobile cities eating each other!) that swings for the fences even if it doesn't always connect. Director Peter Jackson's world-building ambition and the sheer originality of the concept make it worth your time tonight, especially if you're craving something different from the typical sci-fi fare.

Plot

Many thousands of years in the future, Earth’s cities roam the globe on huge wheels, devouring each other in a struggle for ever diminishing resources. On one of these massive traction cities, the old London, Tom Natsworthy has an unexpected encounter with a mysterious young woman from the wastelands who will change the course of his life forever.
