smart, intelligent, but doesn't grip you like you'd want

Rating: Null/10 (24 November 2000)

I went to see this movie with great anticipation last night. I admit i truly enjoyed the concept and personally am a comic collector but the movie did not hold me like that other movie he did, what was it called, oh yeah, The Sixth Sense! The acting was strong, (Robin Wright-Penn underused), the idea as mentioned before was great, but the pace i felt slowed everyone down to almost a dull yawn at times. i admit i twiddled my thumbs more than once. My suggestion is if you are a true comic collector and fan, you will like this movie and if you don't you will want to see it again to find out why. If not, you may not appreciate it as you may want. It is deserving of respect, has a "twist" ending, but don't expect another sixth sense.
