Review
This movie is pretty well put together. The visual effects are great. The cast is good as well. With appearances by Chris Evans (Fantastic Four, Not Another Teen Movie), Jason Schwartzman (Slackers, Rushmore), and Aubrey Plaza (Funny People, Parks & Recreation). If you are a fan of the comic books or the video game, you should enjoy this movie. Although, there will always be those who say, "The comic books were way better than the movie." The action scenes were well choreographed and there were not long drawn out boring parts in between for the most part. Some criticism is directed at Michael Cera for playing the lovable loser, again. He fits the character well, does a great job, and was a great choice for the role. This film was much better than many probably expected, given the history of horrible movies based on video games. Even the success of comic book based movies could not balance it out. Nicely done.
7.5/10
