Of course my little boys loved the fight scenes. I was AMAZED how real the effects were.
(You mean that some of it was FAKE???)
Jim and I thought this one was a bit pedantic and that the plot for the first one had more interesting sub-plots and character development (kind of like THE MATRIX ...nothing like the newness of the first one). It reminded me of how I felt after Star Wars Episode 2: way too much close-ups of good looking leads feeling hurt, misunderstood, confused, or just plain brooding. We got tired of looking at Kirsten D and Tobey so much - and they are attractive people, but ENOUGH already!
I guess I'd been set up for a let down after reading such raving reviews. Even the online reviews from focus on the family were glowing, and for a PG-13 that saying something!
Nevermind, it is a comic book genre, and there were aspects that were marvelous at capturing that feel. As we left the theatre, Cameron looks up to me and says, "Promise me mom that we can get the DVD to THAT one! It was awesome!"
