Since I respect Ridley Scott and his movies don't typically have things just blowing up, hopefully it wasn't him. Maybe his brother Tony or Michael Bay.

But a movie, unlike a book, can hide its lack of plot and character development with CGI. Hard to do that with a book.
CGI only carries a movie so far. I have been over empty blockbuster spectacle for a while (since before it was all CG) and others are coming around.
