Perhaps all the hype ruined it for me. I thought the pace was excruciatingly slow, the action minimal, and some of the scenes very pretentious. <br /><br />In spite of the movie, I will read the first in the series as I have heard it is much, much better.Jeremy Bateshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00877532315856151843noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4221929133944009251.post-27232062625993281302012-04-09T22:45:52.001-06:002012-04-09T22:45:52.001-06:00I've seen it twice, and I'm dying to see i...I've seen it twice, and I'm dying to see it again.

You missed that part? Though I can't blame you. Stinking bladder. (I know all about it, seeing as I'm best friends with the potty at the moment.
