The right formula works again

Rating: 9/10 (4 June 2007)

This movie rocks! The John Travolta tribute seemed a little dated, though. Zena's writer and creator has come a long way from the Evil Dead series. His cut on Raimi style movie making hits home with a formula of pleasing Hollywood and satiating the appetite of comic readers at the same time. The trilogy of villains seem to indicate the pulling out of all stops to make the movie jump off the screen. I even like the way he finds characters for his first hit maker, Bruce Campbell. The way he cuts straight to business by showing the the heart of each character is interesting but also a bit disappointing to the true comic readers. Still, it brings the expedience of movie making to light and allows any viewer to accept them without reading the backgrounds from the Marvel comics. I can't wait for Spidey four.
