Uh, it's a movie, folks!?!?

Rating: 8/10 (2 June 2015)

Hey, it was just a movie - it held my interest for an hour and a half and it was a fun ride. In addition, I didn't mind looking at Scarlett Johansson for that length of time, even if she was turning into an android (pardon my scientific inaccuracy). I found the "what ifs" fascinating and the visual effects were decent enough. Sure, the bad guys were stereotypical and over the top and the "heroine" (no bad pun intended) was ridiculously superhuman and impervious to logic and compassion for others, but people have been gobbling that kind of stuff up in comic books for generations without batting an eye. I no more felt the need to dissect it for accuracy or logic than I would a roller-coaster ride after it was over. So there you go; that's MY review. Everyone else, carry on. ;-)
