It's been on for an hour and a half and so far I'm very impressed.

Ahh, I had really looked forward to seeing it, but I had to drive back to my apartment. Hopefully it'll be on hulu!

Have not viewed it yet, but I will. Anything with Summer Glau in it is deserving of a watch.

Incidentally, there is an anonymous guy behind the lawyer as he's arguing with the hero's wife about hiring her. He's also at the dinner table with the prison chairman and the villain. It's my brother in law, he augments his income doing extra bits.

Don't think so. Summer is the "Oracle" of the show (although she gets out more than Barbara Gordon does) Lenny only had the scene in City Hall and the scene in the restaurant.

I can see why people didn't like it, but honestly I enjoyed it a lot. It was fun to see the action and cheese and stuff.

A ton of holes in the story but fun to watch anyway.
I am getting so tired of slitting the throats of people who say that I am a violent psychopath.

Horrible, simply horrible. It was unoriginal and derivative. It was if a 12 year old had written a script after reading a Spawn comic while watching Robocop.

When Summer picked him up in the car after he lost the battle in the villians office, I was waiting for her to say, "Get in if you want to live." but that did not happen.
