More of a work of art... (contains few spoilers)

Rating: 8/10 (9 April 2007)

Well first of all i'd like to say i really enjoyed this film, i am a great fan of the visuals, and with a sin city esquire feel to it , it obviously is not in black and white etc, but the battle scenes are breath taking at first, but even i felt there was one to many by the end, but i bet if not as many fights were included id be moaning there wasn't enough too. The story is pretty simple and easy to follow. The opening sequences are breathtaking. The suspense in the kid and the wolf scene... and i cannot believe how that effect was acheieved as it looked amazing on screen. The cinematography is great, the lighting is to. I think it is intentionally done but every scene looks like a work of art from a comic or painting. Great fun but do not take it to seriously, i see this more as a work of art than anything else. I enjoyed it and as a holiday film to see with mates and friends its very good.
