Verdict: Thumbs down.

First 1.5 hrs or so of the movie is HELLA SLOW. I seriously was falling asleep in some parts (being up at 6AM will do it to me). There are some genuinely entertaining parts toward the end, but it's not enough to make up for the drawn out soap-opera portions. Ending was disappointing to me too.

Not worth paying for (good thing I didn't).

i have very low expectations of this movie. for whatever reason, i just don't think it is going to be as good of an experience as spiderman 2.

Trailer highlights: Harry Potter + new Bourne movie. I'm sooo there for both.

speaking of which...i'm probably gonna do a midnight showing at the Long Beach Marina theater (it's been tradition).  So if anyone wants to go when it comes out lemme know.

soap opera feel made it suck.

The action scenes were nicely done though. Particularly the.....oh well...no spoilers

i generally only check the "cream of the crop" rating on the right.  most of those other opinions are from those writing for a no name paper or bloggers who couldn't hack it anywhere else.  that said, i will probably still go see this movie sometime next week.
