Right, my review.
Like I said, I hadn't read the graphic novel, so I didn't know what it was about (aside from the general plot). I went in expecting something like "300", seeing as that was also a graphic novel filmed by Zack Snyder.
It was nothing like that.
It was better.
Yes, there's not that much action in this one, however, after seeing this, I have to say that more action isn't always a good thing. The balance was perfect I'd say, the story is very compelling, and the shots are all beautiful. It's got a dark gloomy and sometimes sadistic atmosphere, and I like that.
I've got my hands on the motion comic and on the graphic novel and I certainly intend to watch the motion comic, it's about 6 hours long, and I believe it is the entire graphic novel but animated and with a voice actor (yes, just one). And after that also read the novel.
So, in short, I recommend this to everyone who's not afraid of heavier, darker films, you'll enjoy it a great deal.
I hunt for the truth
