Taking the Hollywood effect into account, I thought they did an excellent job overall, but there's no excuse for the end of this movie.

the look was great
but they didn't get the story and failed badly by taking out the drugs and full torture/testing of V sequence

i think i remember reading an interview with the wachowskis saying they had to take that out because other wise it'd have been an 18 and cut out the market they were trying to aim the films message at

well of course, thats hollywood sadly
i think the film could have been perfect if moore had just got off his high horse. ok League of extraordinary gentlemen was shit, but that doesn't mean they all will be, especially if he was to help with it, a la Frank Miller

Sin City didn't excite me
The novelty black and white value wore off very quickly.
Makes me not want to bother with The Spirit even if the effect is a lot more polished now
