Better than expected
Such remakes always get a lot of slack from everyone. But this is pretty balanced overall.
Another pretty good Superhero movie
I'm not the biggest fan of superhero movies, but I thought this movie was nice. Not as good as The Dark Knight but as good as the Iron man movies. An okay summer past time.
Likely to see
Not for me
