The second one is not bad with the twisted ending. Ultimately I didn't find the movies that special. I liked Tim Burton versions better, I almost shed a tear when I watched Penguin die in Batman Returns.

I did as well....from laughter as all the penguin henchmen carried Penguin's body away. :laugh:

I loved the movie but wouldn't pay 21 for it

Will wait until the blu-ray version comes down in price. I enjoyed it for what it is: an adult superhero movie. fleshconsumed stated all the reasons why I like it.

That said, I still think the Dark Knight is the best superhero movie of all time.

It's great for seeing giant blu-dick in blu-ray -- other than that, the movie sucked

 

[KeithTalent]

Meh, I loved the movie, unlike most people here. There were a few crappy scenes, but I thought overall it was excellent and beautiful to watch, with a much better ending (well maybe more appropriate ending) than the GN. I will probably buy the DC.

I read the comic before I saw the movie, and happened to thoroughly enjoy both. In fact, I reread the comic a few times and watched the movie in the theater a few times as well. I'm definitely going to ask for it for my birthday...because I'm too poor to buy it

I read the "book" and enjoyed the movie but won't bother buying it on my own.

I'll probably get it for Christmas anyway.

Netflix. Stop buying and renting. (Unless it is a RedBox rental, those are only $1/day.)

RedBox != Bluray = FAIL

Netflix is awesome if I really really want to watch a movie......in two days.

I know, it's so stupid. I barely noticed the thing since I was busy actually watching the movie.

the funny part is that when he turns big in vietnam he's wearing a underwear. so the penis was never big to begin with.

I didn't like the movie ending as much. I guess I found the book ending to be a bit more interesting because it was a bit different. I also thought they ruined a couple characters in the movie such as Silk Spectre II and Dr. Manhattan. I don't know if the Director's Cut will make ol' blue any better, but he wasn't nearly as complex in the movie as he was in the comic and I enjoyed that sort of psychological complexity.

I noticed it being much more common in the movie than in the comic.

EDIT:

But, the real crime in the movie is that Malin Ackerman's boobs during the sex scene were CG'd!

Poetic visuals and pacing. Complex themes; content before explosions. Good movie; about as good as superhero/science fiction movies get these days while still being seen.

If you go into it thinking it's a mystery / drama rather than the action movie it was billed as it's really not all that bad.

I bought the Blu-ray having missed the movie in theaters; I don't usually blind buy, but I'd heard good things about this film and it sounded like it would be right up my alley. I thought it was excellent. It's a fantastic character study of the dichotomy of good and evil that exists within all people, even those billed as superheroes. No one in the film was entirely good and no one was entirely bad; they were all presented in a way where you could identify with their thoughts even if you would have acted differently upon them. Very well done.

ok annoying, seems the netflix one is without any special features at all


wonder if torrent will come to the rescue grr
