Apoc's Review: Well, this is definitely a movie that I had no hopes, expections, or foresight going into...because I had no idea what it was about except a basic preview from a few weeks ago. I recognize the name from some books but never read it so..once again....still clueless as to what to expect. I have to say that I really enjoyed this movie because it blew me away from anything that I was expecting. I loved the real comic-book feel of the movie and how it pieced together. I felt like I was reading/watching each issue of a comic book line. The big thing was that it was a bit grotesque and I wouldn't have brought my kid to it if I'd known better. Not that she can't take it but that it was a bit extreme kind of like the movie SAW. I didn't let her watch that either. Either way, she fell asleep about halfway through so I know that she forgot about half that she saw because she lost interest. On the other hand, the adults love it except for my wife for two main points...grotesqueness and that she feel the Pulp-Fiction type of connecting stories has been done enough. I think that she makes valid points but I still enjoyed it. I plan to buy it if I can talk her into letting me when it comes out. About the only thing that I can't comment on is the replay value....Anyway, I recommend to see it if you can...you just might enjoy it.Favorite or Shocking line/scene: (NOTE: as with all mine..I give a description as close as I can.)
