This movies cops a pounding from most people I know, but I'm with you, I loved it.

theskooch July 1 2006, 07:02:44 UTC

Most people want their comic book movies to be over the top action, not an in-depth character film. Most people are also idiots.

wildlyoscillate July 1 2006, 07:37:21 UTC

Agreed.

Because highly intelligent people cheer on a World Cup team just because of a hot chick.

No offense to you or your review, but I'm still not rushing out to see this. I've seen The Sixth Sense, The Village, and part of Signs and they were all terrible. Especially The Village. High school geometry class is more engaging than that film was. M. Night Shyamalan is easily one of my least favorite directors of all time and I am guessing that the presence of Samuel L. Jackson is the only reason this movie can be considered good.

Yes, because Samuel L. Jackson only does quality films, like The Man.

You forgot to mention the two shitty xXx movies.

andythesaint July 1 2006, 07:45:03 UTC

Or three Star Wars movies.

Not a fan of the Village, liked The Sixth Sense, haven't seen Signs but I too liked this movie.

I hate that people hated this. It was supposed to be the first in a trilogy, but people hated it so it won't happen. I was really looking forward to it.

theskooch July 1 2006, 18:49:13 UTC

Well that simply would've been a fantastic trilogy and a model for how comic book franchises could be properly created and maintained. Stupid movie-going public.

euphrates_tiger July 1 2006, 23:56:42 UTC

Agreed.

Way to copy my reply. Pfft.

Out of the five times I've attempted to watch this movie, I stayed awake once. It's not so much the lack of action, because I knew it wasn't going to be like that, but somehow I just felt unimpressed by the two.
