Sky Captain and the World of Tomorrow
Who will save us?
Directed by Kerry Conran
Produced by Filmauro, Brooklyn Films II
A visually sumptuous retro-futuristic adventure that blends 1940s pulp aesthetics with steampunk spectacle, driven by action and romantic banter rather than depth.
When gigantic robots attack New York City, "Sky Captain" uses his private air force to fight them off. His ex-girlfriend, reporter Polly Perkins, has been investigating the recent disappearance of prominent scientists. Suspecting a link between the global robot attacks and missing men, Sky Captain and Polly decide to work together. They fly to the Himalayas in pursuit of the mysterious Dr. Totenkopf, the mastermind behind the robots.
