I think 2D would have been better. Maybe it was the too-close, too-off-center seats we were given, but I think the 3D for this film sucked. I have a hard enough time with too-close close ups during action sequences; doing that with 3D just plain blew.
Liam not as frightfully bad as I'd feared (I was afraid that we'd get "Darkman" Liam). I think the director must have told Ralph to channel Christian Bale's Batman or Clint Eastwood - the hoarse Hades didn't work for me. The script was pretty awful -- everything was a pronouncement, as though every line was meant to be memorable. Oy. Oh and the costume designer ought to be shot and left to bleed to death.
But that said - it had a few very (intentionally) funny moments, I think Sam did as good a job as could be done with the character and the script, and it wasn't anywhere near as awful as I anticipated it might be.
But I'm wondering - why was this Pegasus black???

Before you criticize someone, walk a mile in their shoes. That way when you criticize them, you're a mile away and you have their shoes.
