Viewing Notes
You have to be willing to embrace the weirdness in order to enjoy this movie, otherwise it’s going to play as a disjointed mess. I’m not entirely happy with how they integrated the source material through static comic panels and animation, even though it gives a better sense of where the character came from. I wonder how this would have played as a straight animation instead.
Funny to see Ice-T as a ripper in this and wow, Naomi Watts! Who knew!
