my favorite comic film to date

Rating: 10/10 (11 April 2004)

i enjoyed everything about this film. i expected it to be good, but i was blown away. by keeping things simple, it doesn't distract you with crappy side stories that you'll never see come to fruition(*ahem* the matrix sequels *ahem*). it combines old school plotting and pacing, with new school special effects. the sum total is greater than the parts, in this case. i haven't left the movies with this sense of entertainment satisfaction in a long, long time. do yourself a favor, and check out the underdog in the race for comic film superiority.
