I wasn't expecting too much, and there are some terrible scenes in it, some really awful stuff, but I still enjoyed it. I think its a little more thoughtful than Spiderman, it considers issues of slavery and that sort of thing, and recalls the hardboiled detective style of Bladerunner. I'll give it 6.5 out of 10. Incidentally the Ovaltine Cafe isn't a product placement, but rather is a venerable greasy spoon on Vancouver's east side. It has been used as a shooting location for many tv shows and movies. It opened in 1942 and is famous for its authentic neon signage and atmosphere.
