Lots of hoopla and a few laughs but thats about it.

Rating: 6/10 (8 July 2005)

Seeing it, I was quite disappointed. Characters weren't well written, plot was thin, and the story seemed to drag on until the end and then it was over. The film had a few bright moments of comic relief and the special effects were very good. But being a research scientist by profession, I was brought back to the old adage, never let good science get in the way of a story. The more I think about it, the less I enjoyed it. Good thing the tickets were free as I would have been upset if I had to pay to see it. This is one movie that will not get in my DVD collection. If you really are into comic book themes, might I suggest Batman Begins, as it is head and shoulders above this movie.
