Before you read the review there are two things you should know: 1: I have yet to read the graphic novel, but I did some reading up on it prior to the film’s release, so I still did know what kind of movie I was seeing, even if it may sound otherwise.
2.

With that said I will not go into too much detail on why this film is rated R (keepin’ it PG here) but just know that just because this classifies as a superhero movie, DON’T TAKE ANY CHILDREN TO SEE IT. I say this because during my viewing a man a few rows behind me brought his son, which he definitely shouldn’t have.
Anywho, on to the business. Read more
