Movies from comedy to drama to your favorite Hollyweird Star.

Caught it earlier today, and my reaction is mixed.

Great opening flashback sequence, but it bogs down in places and doesn't work as well as the graphic novel. Those familiar with the source material will find it less confusing than those who haven't read it, but IMO the translation to film creates problems that aren't satisfactorily resolved. Some of the make-up sucks in places (for instance, really BAD age make-up on mother of Silk Specter II in close-ups); you may need a couple of shots of moonshine just to suspend disbelief. Since it's rated 'R' you may want to leave the misses at home if you have a tendency to stomp your feet, hoot and whistle during sex scenes.
