Why All The Negativity?
Although this film is far from perfect I couldn't understand the major negativity it got, people who saw this and thort ooo a new superhero film this is gonna be quality!!!
I did think it was going to be stylish as Sin City and clever as Dark Knight it wasn't. But in all it wasn't a terrible film,
I did twitch halfway thinking this better pick up and I think the Rawshack character carried the film just about enough also it contained just enough shock value to make it a success
