Sin City- there’s obvious genius
there. Even some brilliance is shining through in Ronin, but 300 left me flat.
Maybe it was the hype from the movie, but to me, it’s like getting the latest
Bruce Springsteen CD- its good- but the magic that made the Boss and in this
case Frank Miller has gone.
I really thought (Spoiler Alert)
that the 300 won. I also thought there was a big climatic pushing of Savages
off a cliff- well neither was present in my version. Did I get some super sucky
version?
Don’t get me wrong- the book started
off great. It just didn’t carry any of the hype of the movie. And for me, that
was a big letdown. Plus the ending was like that of Terminator or Castaway-
just too gosh darn open ended. I hate that.
So, guys, if you want Classic Frank
Miller, read an old issue of Daredevil instead.
Not Worth Consuming.
