Looks fun. Looks like and R-rated version of Mystery Men or Blankman. Should be worth a watch, especially after seeing the R-rated trailer.

Not familiar with the comic, but the film's been getting some pretty good buzz (since Comic Con); I'll definitely be checking this out to form an opinion. Looks fun.

The graphic novel was extremely brutal, and it was good.

Old news for those checking up on this in the other thread in Comic book movies.

🍺 Yeah,I've known about this for awhile,it should be good

Trailer looks good and tempting too.

I like the man's work, so have been looking forwards to this film for ages, looks so much fun.

Saw the trailer in the theater, film looks awful.

Apparently this movie got great reviews. IGN claims it is the best Superhero movie with a 5/5 stars. Hollywood gives it a 5/5 ass well.

I'm not quite sure what to think so far. It doesn't look terrible, but it doesn't look that good either.

Apparantly this films amazing. Some reviewers are sayings its the best thing since the Dark Knight and that Hit Girl's gonna be the next movie icon. Definately going to watch it.

Saw the trailer again when I went to see Green Zone yesterday, I take back my earlier comment. Movie will likely be shit, but a decent fun film. The little girl looks to be the lowest-point.

I agree

Vastly different reviews, well the first one is written by a 'critic' I can't stand but I read his reviews because I find them so amusing sometimes when they are angry and melodramatic, especially this one. It was in the newspaper today but found it here, he gave it one star:

And a four star review here by a woman who mentioned Hit Girl as a feminist icon:

Impossible.

yeah...

i dont think it can beat spiderman 2

Better than The Dark Knight and Watchmen: Directors Cut? I don't think so. But I will probably see this with friends since it comes out on the birthday.

After all, it IS rated R and apparently pretty violent so......

oh, dark knight.

TDK isnt the best comic movie; its just a really good movie in itself.

TDK>Spiderman 2
