i just got back from seeing it two hours ago. it was good.

beautiful movie.

the acting was a little distracting in parts, but wasn't so
bad. it was very violent. very.

mickey rourke stole the show.

this is the one with Jessica Alba, right?!

I haven't read the comic, but Jessica Alba is fucking hot,
so I'll probably see the movie anyway!

i never read the comic book... from the trailers and clips
i've seen, this looks like an overly-stylized action movie.
it that what it is?

more or less, but it was still a lot better for the most
part... certainly not without its faults or anything, but in
terms of action pastiche films, i think this is better than
Kill Bill I... worth seeing if only to take part in the
inevitable debates that will follow...

WORST reason to see any film.

it wasn't that great. i mean, it dragged on too much..
boring... some hardcore cheesy parts too. i was somewhat
disapointed.

yeah, that's basically what it boils down to. but, it is
beautifully stylized, and the action aspect of it is well
above par.

an action movie with good action... in that case, it must
be a good movie. maybe i'll see it when it plays at the
cheap theater. ;)

haha... maybe... in any case, i'm a fuckin' snob when it
comes to film and i didn't regret seeing this... it held my
attention... at times it succeeds, at times it fails...

**very mild spoiller**

any movie where a guy tears a dudes package completely off
with his bear hands, then punches his head into an oatmeal
like consistency is worth a viewing in the dollar theater if
you ask me.

This movie was intense! I liked it. Even though I hadn't
read the original comic series, this movie did feel like
watching a live comic book. I cant explain it really, its
all about the camera angles, the crazy characters, the
colors and the dialogue i suppose.

some of the dialogue was so comic-book-cheesy-bad that my
girlfriend and I were the only ones laughing in the theatre
at times.

have seen it.
