Its a cliche ecncompassing attributes of all superhero characters involving a disjointed plot. Basically, it was a corney production with no real riviting action scenes. The special affects for glowman were interesting however that wasn't enough to maintain interest as the movie went on and on and on.
Best movie of the year. End Stop.
If you have an imagination and enjoy comic book style movies - then this is for you. It brings real-life culture into the mix by incoporating figures like Nixon and Warhol into the mix. The soundtrack was amazing! To say this movie was boring seems bizzare. I think some people like movies where you do not have to think...which usually are the terrible movies. This movie is gold! ~THEPOWER
walked out after 40 minutes, what the F was that???
As a fan of the novel and ideas behind it I thought this was an excellent movie, it brilliantly conveyed the feel of the book, the scenes and characterizations were bang on. Going to see it again
How this movie obtained 4 stars is beyond me. Must be a predominantly male population voting for the sheer amount of tasteless nudity and ridiculous fighting scenes... seems like a spoof of batman.
I was so disapointed. The acting is very poor. The story is ok, but the movie is slow moving and not very exciting at all. The special effects were good but not great. I understand the movie and it made perfect sense to me but it just is not that great. It is for sure for a person who is a big fan of the novels, otherwise you may not like it. It is ok but far from great!
Terrible movie!
All this nonsense about how you "have to have read the book to understand the movie" is just silly. The graphic novel may be a masterpiece, but this movie is a long bore. 1 star.
Before falling asleep, I saw 5 people walk out half way through. Painfully boring for long stretches. 1 star.
