Finally! A comic book franchise which does the original justice.

Rating: Null/10 (26 March 2004)

I just saw the sneak preview in New York, complete with a short intro from Ron Perlman & Selma Blair. Without giving away too much (if the trailers haven't already) let me say just that this movie had just the right blend of action, humor and fantasy for my tastes. The main characters were likeable and believable which is rare for a comic book conversion. The bad guys were totally over the top but in a cool way, so no complaints there :)
While this certainly is no Matrix/LOTR, it is a solid and enjoyable action flick. I had a blast watching this, and I might just do it again in a week or two. I give it an 8.5
