If you haven’t seen this movie… I suggest you get your asses of your computer monitors and watch it. I absolutely loved this movie. In fact, regardless of what other critics may say, I think so far, of the movies I’ve watched this topped my list of “most enjoyable” movies of the first half of 2006.<\/p>\n

The way the battle scenes were kinda over-the-top was absolutely brilliant for that type of film. It was like watching a cartoon. Which isn’t surprising since it was a Disney story. But nonetheless, it was so much fun to watch.<\/p>\n

The effects of course were great. I didn’t really pay much attention to effects nowadays since as long as what I see seems believable, then I really don’t give a rat’s ass how much effort they put into pulling it off. As one of the effects people of the Lord of the Rings said: “the goal is to not let people think you were using computers, etc.”<\/em><\/p>\n

The story was interesting enough, and the ending was superb! Seldom have I experienced an excited “whoa” moment when watching an ending. And the clever part is, while it does leave you wanting to see the third installment, it still actually finishes<\/em> the current movie.<\/p>\n\n

I dare say, I liked this movie better than Superman.<\/em> I must say however that I only appreciated the latest Superman movie after<\/em> Katz explained to me why it was great: apparently, it was the closest to the comic books, and a lot of the imagery used were taken directly from the comics.<\/p>\n

While I can see how Superman fans would love that, as a viewer who didn’t really follow the Superman saga closely, I have to say I’d hoped that the movie would be far more interesting. I’m almost inclined to think that the major<\/strong> reason why the fans loved it was because of relating it to the comic-book – and not so much because the story of Superman Returns<\/em> was actually compelling.<\/em> I could be wrong… but I will say this: a friend who loved the Superman Movie still liked the new Pirates<\/em> better \ud83d\ude42 That should count for something.<\/p>\n

Though if it’s pirates<\/em> you’re talking about… I still vote for this:<\/p>\n
