I definitely would have been a little upset if I had paid full price... definitely glad I went matinee. Overall, I think the movie had a lot of the same problems that Daredevil had - the transitions just didn't flow well together at all. Parts seemed rushed through, others dragged. The end wasn't pretty predictable, it was entirely predictable. Even so, I enjoyed the story, and found that the 132 minutes passed by pretty quickly. I would have liked to see a little bit more... cohesion... from the movie. I think a lot of the off hand comments fell a bit flat and were a bit forced. On the positive side, it left me really wanting more, and I wouldn't have minded an extra 15 minutes to fill out some of the blank spots. The CGI was fairly integrated and not very obvious. Unlike say, The Hulk, which was a total CGI fest, here the CGI felt like just another tool. That is a good thing, in my opinion. Oh, and to address Barendd's comment, I'm almost certain that it's intentional that the CGI is somewhat blocky. From what I understand, there was a very distinct effort to keep it faithful to the comic, including Del Toro and others actively fighting against changes suggested by the studio.</blockquote>
