if you don't like this movie, you don't like movies...period

Rating: 10/10 (7 April 2005)

absolutely one of the most brilliant films ever made. groundbreaking. awe inspiring. brilliant and amazing and a work of genius. hands down spectacular. i wont even bother explaining why.
one comment...if you are one of those folks who complains about violence, two questions...why did you see the movie? it is the very definition of "comic book violence". you had to know this going in. it is rated r. what more warning do you have to have? to complain about this particular film's violence is roughly akin to complaining about its stylized look for not being realistic. this is so over the top, and intentionally so, that no one in their right mind could ever or would ever mistake this as a real attitude towards violence or even a roughly accurate depiction thereof.
if you cant take violence, you should not see violent movies. it is your fault, not the movies, that you couldn't take it.
i have heard other such nonsense about its "degradation of women" and other rather PC concerns...look folks...it is a COMIC BOOK!!!! at what point do we stop judging every piece of entertainment as if it is a documentary style examination of everyday life in America and simply let it be what it is...
this is one of the single most brilliant uses of the cinematic form since the invention of celluloid and the discovery of persistence of vision, and beyond that, a damned entertaining movie. if this one didn't work for you, give it up. you don't like movies.
