Stunning violence. Cartoons brought to life.

Rating: 9/10 (13 April 2005)

I don't know what I expected but this movie blew me away. Bruce Willis was excellent and he was the fourth best actor in the film. Other worldly is how I would describe it. What the movies Darkman and Spawn aspired to. It would have been a 10 for me but the Bruce Willis segment was a bit weaker and a bit more predictable. Graphic violence but softened to the senses by the black and white. The prosthetic makeup twists the features of some familiar faces into the cartoon characters they want us to see. Memorable and unique but a lot of splatter. It was a good enough film that I would see the sequel in a heartbeat but so different from everything else out there that it would be a shame not to just leave it as the one of a kind film that it is.
