Great special effects!

Rating: 8/10 (22 July 2005)

Great special effects! I agree that it was somewhat slow at times, but it had to give some back ground into the lives of the main characters! Not everyone has read the comics. Speaking of that...Dr. Doom was not on the original space ship. I do like the way if was incorporated in the movie, though. Character development was very well done. If you were going to this movie to see some artsy-fartsy imported French movie that has "social insight"...well, you lose. If you want to go and see a really fun fill summer movie that you can take the kids to, have some popcorn, sneak in some drinks (so you don't has to pay those prices!); then this is the one for you!
