I didn't like the level of violence, that's just me. But, the way the story was told was much better than pretty much every other superhero story.
Breaking the fourth wall, easygoing, not too serious... that's how comic book movies should always be imo.
Even with the most clichéd story in human history (bad guy kidnaps good guys girl) the different approach made it so much better. Comic book movies are supposed to be stupid fun and somewhere started trying to be epic novellas. Really shows you don't have to be so serious all the time, the comedy actually helps lend gravitas to the brutality and violence because it's not just mindless droning on of explosions.
