My rating: 6/10
Will I watch it again? No.
OK, so here's how you have to approach this movie. I didn't realize it until I was well into it. The dialogue is ridiculous and the acting is all over the place but it's mostly over the top. So if you watch this knowing that you're watching a comic book movie then you're ahead of the game. If you do that then you might have a lot more fun. When I realized this, that's when I just let go and enjoy it. On that level it's kind of fun. If you take it seriously then you're in for a major disappointment. I've seen the other two films and I like them better but it's nice to finally get around to this one and put it behind me. The Artisan DVD has a nice anamorphic widescreen print with the only extra being the fullscreen trailer.
