Blah is all I have to say.
I hadn't read the comics before, so this is where I am coming from.
Spoiler review:
Amazing visuals (loved Rowsap's mask) and Rowsap as a character was pretty spectacular. However, the movie seemed to really drag on in a lot of parts. I thought the dragging out on the back story of the comedian didn't add too much value to the movie - we get it, that chick is your daughter, you were a bad dude, you got killed, you were on to Veidt - I don't need to see you for half the movie explaining this back story. The whole introduction/plot was really unclear. It was kinda of hard to follow it in that respect as well. I didn't go in expecting much in terms of a superhero movie - but I would have liked to see a little more in terms of action (don't get this confused for violence/gore, which in the movie was actually pretty over the top in some areas). I'm not sure if that could've fit into the story, but that was more of what I was hoping for. You've got this awesome cast of characters and it seems you didn't use them or you got to see their full potential.
Anyways just my opinion. Maybe you should read the comics before going and you might enjoy it more than I did.
