Enjoyed

Rating: 8/10 (6 April 2010)

I have to say that I never followed any comic book synopsis before going to see this. I knew nothing about the picture other than Angelina Jolie was in it and it was an action film. Though, it apparently pulled from various past films as most do i.e. Edward Norton's in Fight Club/Keanu Reeves in Matrix in combination with the obvious visual effects stunt of bending the bullets which was an obvious rip off concept from the Matrix, or so I believe, the film succeeded overall and was thoroughly entertaining. Main point of interest was the rating. Too many films these days have quality, storyline, and visual content that is sacrificed by child friendly ratings. Mind you, ratings have become more relaxed over the past few years, the R rating allowed for just the right amount of gore (missing from the Matrix) to satisfy my appetite. Very pleased!
