My reaction
Concept: 4/4 (Great)
Story: 2/4 (Indifferent)
Characters: 1/4 (Bad)
Dialog: 2/4 (Indifferent)
Pacing: 2/4 (Indifferent)
Cinematography: 2/4 (Indifferent)
Special effects/design: 1/4 (Bad)
Acting: 1/4 (Bad)
Music: 2/4 (Indifferent)
Subjective Rating: 6/10 (Okay, 2/4). It could have been a really good story, but the execution is terrible. The "action" is unintentionally funny, the villain can't act, and the Daleks have no business being there at all.
Objective Rating (Average): 1.9/4 (Eh)
