An excellent action-comedy film.

Rating: 10/10 (6 June 2009)

Strong point: Excellent Action, surprisingly deep characters, hilarious comedy
Weak Point: How in the name of all that is purple did this get a PG rating?
This should be an action-comedy superhero film, not a family film. The producers should have gone the whole way and made this an action film. As it is, the film is stellar. When I finished watching it, I immediately felt invigorated and exhilarated. For the first half of the movie I could not stop laughing. For the second half, I was constantly on the edge of my seat.
Its hard to decide which is more appealing, the characters, the comedy, or the action. Each of these is beautifully done, and excellently presented. The special effects and action are as thrilling as a trip with Peter Jackson. The characters emotionally deep and complex. For Director Brad Bird, this is familiar territory, and something he did very well in the Iron Giant. It defiantly carries over into this masterpiece. the film is also peppered with some of the best comedy you will ever see in a film.
Bottom Line: What I've meant to say with all this yakking is: Watch this movie.
