This is a pretty faithful adaptation from a very cool comic, but I can’t really say its a good one. It’s not that the changes made in adapting the comic are not bad ones. A lot of scenes are lifted straight from the comic along with actual dialogue it’s just that some of the character actions that happen in the movie are not effectively explained leaving in a whirlwind of questions (How did he know that? How did he know that would work?) that causes you to check-in and out of the movie.

While I enjoyed this movie enough the running time also felt a bit inflated and the pacing was all over the place which had me questioning and checking “how much longer until this movie ends”.
