I got a screener of this last week and watched it this past weekend. I must say that the film is beautiful... really! Aesthetically its just as visually pleasing as 300 was, even more so I'd say.

However, while this movie was highly entertaining and fun it wasn't as good as I wanted it be. I've never read the graphic novel so I had no idea of how it was going into the film however the overall feel coming out of watching it was that it could have been done better. Its a good film with lots of good scenes... but it could have been great. The story is convoluted and some of the lines aren't fully explored that should have been.

However, overall it was really entertaining and I enjoyed it very much.
