No good enough ... not nearly good enough!

Rating: 6/10 (9 January 2013)

I don't think I can trust IMDb anymore. Honestly there is no way this is a 8.7 film. None. It was way too long. The acting was mediocre at best. The dialogue was OK - but had me cringing frequently. The guy can fly an advanced fighter with zero training? The villain isn't really that bad of a guy once you learn his background. The opening scenes try to dazzle with amazing CGI - but it all seems so forced, as if trying too hard to be cutting edge. The Dark Night was such a good flick that it is unfair to compare it to this one. But compare we must. And, of course, they don't. 8.7 is a joke. 6.7? OK, that's about right. I do look forward to the next one...but not as desperately as I looked forward to this one.
