The movie revolves around a comic book, and basically makes "real life" out of the things in the comics. The acting itself isn't too bad, but everything else is. The stories are so lame and ridiculous that they just seem stupid. I got the impression from the previews that this was supposed to be a comedy. If it was, it missed. The monsters in the film are also pretty bad, the makeup ranks right up there with your average B horror film from 10-20 years ago. If you can avoid this movie, by all means do. If you have to take someone to it, or someone wants to take you to it, bring a book. --Dave Curry pur-ee!davy
