Terrible movie...

Rating: 10/10 (8 March 2009)

... for your average movie-goer. It's got 'splosions, guns, sex, bewbies, punch'n and kick'n. But it also asks the viewer to reconsider the hero archetypes that they've been "learning" for years. This may be too much to ask of the unwashed masses who desperately need their characters to be carbon copies of simple types they've seen in every other movie, doing the same things and participating in the same stories they've been told thousands of times. And so they may find themselves challenged when they go to see this "superhero" movie. They may lash out angrily to their lack of comprehension of what they see. They will be distracted by blue genitalia and a plot that actually dares to stray from the stock Hollywood formulas. But if you read at least one book a year and you have highschool level reading comprehension, there is a chance you might like this film. The other 70% of America should steer clear of this movie.
