Seriously, I feel like I shouldn't have to defend a movie that was adapted from a glorified, highly stylized COMIC BOOK. Apparently people didn't get that part. Besides, aren't we all a bit tired of real bad blood makeup? The 2D blood splatters are way cool in light of what could be some corny blood sprays. The exaggeration is what some people call "style" ... and style is usually accepted in something those same people call "art."

So we didn't like the unrealistic creatures and characters? Spoiler: Well let's not forget that this story was told as an account from someone who was personally picked by the King for his storytelling ability. How do you think he's going to describe elephants, rhinos and other foreign things (people who look different?) that he'd never seen before?

I know everyone's allowed to think what they want, but that doesn't mean they aren't being short-sighted for thinking it. Until someone digs up some expose about how this movie was supposed to be a slick political thriller with undertones of personal faith and ultimately a love story... please don't complain about the lack thereof. If you just paid $11 dollars thinking it was gonna be any more than what it was, you need to think more before spending your next buck.



Of course, if you don't like it for what it really IS, then.. ok. Fine.

(Oh, and a little sub note... I know none of this criticism has taken place in this thread... I was just so taken aback by the opinions I've seen posted on the internet by viewers and critics. Don't you wish some people would just shut up and be entertained?)
