[Potential Spoilers] Has Anyone seen the live action Attack on titan movie?

I've been seeing showings for the live action AoT movie pop up around my area. I was wondering if anyone has seen it?

From the trailers and that Subaru ad with the titans, it doesn't look too good. I think the only character from the show that's in the movie is Eren. I want to believe that there is an anime->live action movie adaptation that isn't completely terrible, but I'm not sure that this movie is that.

    I'm cautious about spectacle animes being mixed with live action. Always comes across as cheesy or forced to me. There's some shows I'd love in tv form (monster- if that'll ever happen even though it apparently will) but attack on titan isn't one of those.

    Just started watching, will finish later. They're going to have to change Mikasa's background since she's supposed to be the last Asian after her mother was murdered, and the attempted kidnapping of the last Asians is why she became a steel-nerved bad-ass. The effects aren't good enough to suspend disbelief; doesn't look like this movie had a high budget. You'll know that it doesn't follow the source material all too well if you watch [this trailer]. I think this movie needed a Germanic cast to be great.

    Update: The two-part live-action movie looks like it'll end up as a pretty mediocre love story. It's vastly different from the manga/anime excluding a few main characters' names and some iconic scenes. Wouldn't really recommend watching it.
