This story tells of the twenty-fifth century, when the population of the Earth is reduced to only millions of people. The story begins with a mysterious assassin named Aeon Flux, a man who works for the Monkis, a group of rebels against the government. It seems that this woman will be sent to kill the president, but perhaps there will be many secrets and strong surprises.
The enormous, and probably impossible, amount of style and wit required to resuscitate the original cartoon into something with real faces, bodies, gravity, and locations is beyond Kusama.

Between bouts of gun fights and acrobatics, "Aeon Flux" is a dreadfully boring and incomprehensible mess with a screenplay that constantly jumps between clunky to just plain embarrassing...
Even Theron's sexy catsuit acrobatics can't prevent boredom from setting in as the film's unimaginative production design and dull dialogue take precedence.
