I just saw it this afternoon. Great movie, but I love this stuff.

*may contain slight spoilers*
Some things I'm confused with having not read the comics: for one thing the 3 (or 4) different story lines in the movie made me a bit confused because they weren't really connected (in the usual movie sense.) Though it wasn't that bad a thing, it made me concentrate on trying to figure out if bruce willis, for instance, was really the scar guy and how the story lines were connected beside the fact that they just all happen to be in the same city.

The other thing was--what was with the normal/good acting-normal/good acting-normal/good acting-odd pause make some obscure reference to film noir comment/bad acting thing? I dunno, the way they did it just sort of broke the tempo of the movie to me. I assume they were meant to be a small homage.

One more thing was that it was confusing as to which characters were supposed to be super hero semi invincible as some could take repeated damage to the head, shot, stabbed, jump off 5 stories, and still be standing while some would get knocked out in an open handed slap. So that was a bit inconnsistent.

The violence and nudity seemed to fit, and if they were taken out I'd think it would seem to lack.

/manly
Damnit, Alba was a stripper! And nothing!
/end manly

All in all still a very good movie.
