Great story wonderful ideas

Rating: 8/10 (13 July 2001)

I recently watched the DVD version of this movie and thought it was great. I was leary at first because the trailers turned me away from this movie. I loved the superheros in everyday life idea, it reminds you of Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon, when the characters start flying more and more which makes you elevate your view of them to supernatural despite your idea of who the character is. The DVD version includes a short "behind the scenes" featurette which points out a lot of the use of color and other aspects. The only thing that ruined this movie experience for me was the superimposed text at the ending; ignoring this text(which wasn't in the prerelease screening) would have made the story twice as good.
