Let alone heard it.  My impression of the police in NY is that it is hard enough to get them to investigate gun fire let alone people running around on a roof."What's that mam, people on the roof of a building, running around! We'll have the helicopter and a swat team there in minutes, mam. You hold tight!"Why did they change the ethnicity of the Kingpin?  It doesn't really matter, but he should have at least been hugely fat.Don't get me wrong I've seen worse, but this bored me.  Of all the marvel movies out there this one ranks at the bottom.  At least I wasn't bored by the 70's Captain America movie.  Even the 80's Punisher movie didn't bore me and those two movies were atrocious.Things I liked:radar sense....er um I guess that's it radar sense.sorry about that. I had to vent.  All of the current crop of superhero movies have been so good, I guess I felt really let down by this one.</blockquote>
