My, that was a LONG movie. I was dehydrated going into the film, which turned out to be a good thing; in spite of the headache and weak legs, I was able to sit through the whole thing without having to make a bathroom break.
As for the film....there was a long sex scene with Malin Akerman. And oh yeah, there were some explosions and stuff. And umm...Malin Akerman....
( Spoilers for the film )
Overall, the film seemed stately, took it's material very, almost too seriously, and in many cases, repeated dialogue from the comic word-for word. The pacing was slow because a lot of information had to be imparted, and it had to cover a period of decades. I think really, this was about as faithful an adaptation as possible. Also, the design work was quite beautiful. So overall, I would give this film a definite "worth seeing in the theaters" grade.
