Loved the action and the visuals, too, but I wasn't surprise, since those are Snyder's strengths. <br /><br />Of course it's not perfect.. the 'dream' secens felt a bit out of place, and the plot was incoherent.<br /><br />I absolutely agree about Jena Malone - she did her best, though I thought Abbie Cornish did better. <br /><br />I had a great time watching it too. 7 is a fair rating ;)George Beremov [Nebular]https://www.blogger.com/profile/15136154142341512854noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8902350714271321235.post-2771701555291671502011-04-11T13:10:20.145-07:002011-04-11T13:10:20.145-07:00finally I've seen it.
Well, visually it's...finally I've seen it.<br /><br />Well, visually it's stunning, I adore the soundtrack and the acting is also quite terrific (most notably Jena Malone).<br /><br />However, it's not perfect: it has its lengths, there are too many 'dance' scenes and the ending was a bit of a letdown.<br /><br />Nevertheless, I had a great time watching it!<br />7/10Maynard Morrisseyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00484689288762406307noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8902350714271321235.post-20299246528258009952011-04-08T05:21:29.548-07:002011-04-08T05:21:29.548-07:00Dempsey, it's not Snyder's masterpiece, bu...Dempsey, it's not Snyder's masterpiece, but it deserves to be seen for the spectacular action and eye-popping visuals. In those terms, it's a winner! Over the years I realized that people get too affected by the critics and their opinions, which shows how weak most viewers are, and how they struggle to decide for themselves weather they like it or not, without being affected by the professionals' opinions.George Beremov [Nebular]https://www.blogger.com/profile/15136154142341512854noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8902350714271321235.post-23591537233508260862011-04-08T03:43:19.429-07:002011-04-08T03:43:19.429-07:00I hit the avoid button on this because of every re...I hit the avoid button on this because of every review I read pointing this movie to the shallow end of the pool, but your review has give me some hope for it.Dempsey Sandershttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03842133437455945602noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8902350714271321235.post-5401496992469928402011-04-06T00:33:32.667-07:002011-04-06T00:33:32.667-07:00Nicole, sweetheart, your welcome! :) And I'll ...Nicole, sweetheart, your welcome! :) And I'll always be supportive ;)<br /><br />You blog became hugely popular in very short time, which showcases what an awesome person and blogger you are.
