As you said it's all personal opinion. but I would like to know what films are great films that you've seen. Which books are great booksyou've read. As you recall this Comic was on times top 100 Novels since 1912 I think(along with catcher in the rye 1984 and a lot of others) The music was perfect, def something different great songs that have been used in movies before, and it was used in this film in the same way, but different if that makessense. Such as along the watch tower is a classic song for going into battle, and it was being played as they walking into Viedts compound.Originally Posted by Tman90
C'mon, a comic is the greatest piece of literature you've ever read? I mean, I'm all for personal opinion, but you need to read more if this is the case!Originally Posted by p0tat0 5alad
The comic is amazing and probably the greatest piece of literature I've ever read. The movie for the most part is a spot on adaptation of the comic so on that front, it was awesome. Just like any book that gets turned into the movie, there is no way the movie can live up to the book (unless its not well known) because you have more storyline and character development in a book. On this front I think the movie was above average. Not amazing but as far as books made into movies, I'd think its near the top.
Anyone that says the movie sucks is basically saying the comic sucks because it is about 95% straight from the comic.
I can see why comic fans enjoyed the film, but I found the film incredibly boring and in fact, when I left, I remember saying it was the second worst film I've seen at the cinema. Which is true - it just dragged on, and the whole story was just ridiculous. The film just jumped from scene to scene, all of a sudden we're on Mars watching the blue guy meditate? %!+? And how were they so great at fighting, just because they put on a costume?
The ending was horrible and the music choice throughout the film was not fitting at all. I thought that overall, the film was highly disappointing.
