...was indeed fantastic. However, the movie theatre was literally sticky. Sure, the tickets were only $5 a person, but oh my god, the floor was just sticky, like they'd never mopped it, ever. Ewwwwww. Also, the air conditioning was up so high we nearly froze to death.

Julian McMahon does evil really well here, even better than on Charmed (didn't see Nip/Tuck -- is he evil-ish there, too?), and Ioan Gruffudd was unexpectedly funny.

Are they fans of the comic? Because I didn't read it, so my expectations were pretty low.

We're not talking Batman good, here -- I won't kid you, I thought Christian Bale et al. blew these people away in terms of good storytelling and fantastic acting. But it was an extremely fun ride nonetheless.

Oh I don't know that. Most of the reviews focussed on bad acting, worse effects and awful writing - they didn't really mention how faithful it was to the original comic.

I agree the writing wasn't up to snuff, but I liked the acting and the effects. Hmmm. I guess I'm pretty shallow sometimes, or something.
