I was excited to see a preview of this based off the trailers, it looked like it had such a promising premise, but that premise is wasted by poor writing and stilted dialogue. I didn't realize this was written by Beinoff until after I saw the movie but looking back on it it makes a lot of sense. This is exactly the kind of shlocky writing and stupid characters any fan of GOT has come to expect after season 8. I can feel the "Well, X character kind of forgot about Y." throughout the plot.

Great lead, great director, brought down by the poor writing of Beinoff
David Benioff strikes again
When I saw the trailer I thought "Yea, I already know exactly how the story goes, but the deaging effects look nice"
So I went into it expecting not much, but at least some average entertainment. But oh boy, the movie is kinda hard to enjoy. The characters have no depth, the story is totaly bland and the action in it's best moments is super average.
I was right on both my predictions. The trailer already tells you the whole story and it does feel like you've already seen it before. And also, the creation of a young Will Smith totaly worked.
The script is horrible and you can easily notice the flaws. There are some super obvious setups that are so randomly thrown in that you know it's gotta be important later, just to then be disappointed that the payoff is even worse. Speaking of "Bees".
Sometimes it feels like scenes are missing. Some actually important stuff just happens off-screen.
The finale is disappointing and unspectacular and also the special effects are super whacky. People jump and run so fast that it looks like an early 2000s movie.
Conclusion: Will Smith keeps picking mediocre movies, I can't recommend you watching this, I was really bored.
Two words:
David Benioff.
...useful when adapting material, not able to write anything entertaining on his own.
Will Smith is Will Smith. I like him, but there's only do much he can do with Benioff's "work".
