Very very fun to watch!

Rating: 8/10 (2 March 2007)

When I went to see this movie with my boyfriend, I was expecting a cool movie.
Well, it was!
I have never read the comic books *I didn't even know it WAS a comic book!* and I thought the plot was very interesting (I like those sort of plot lines anyway, which is why I loved Constantine...).
I thought the dialog could have been spruced up a bit for a slightly more mature audience (not by adding swear words and such; just a little more complexity). I understand that most comic books are geared towards a slightly younger audience though, so it didn't really bother me too much!
The acting was fantastic, albeit a bit over-dramatic. Nicholas Cage is quite possibly the most laid back, dead-panned man I've ever seen on film...I totally loved him! Eva Longoria was all right; she seemed to just be a pretty face in this movie, and not much else.
I also thought the movie could have been a bit longer, with more action in it, but overall, it was truly a fun movie to watch! Not fantastic, definitely not bad, just very very fun and enjoyable! It makes a good date movie! It was definitely worth the $6.50!
