I just watched this for the third time and it still manages to impress.
A great script, strong characters and a very powerful underlying message makes this so much more than your usual 2 dimensional comic book adaptations.
The fact that the good and evil characters are so blurred is the key to the success of this film (and it's sequels. Special effects don't rule this film, they simply allow the characters to really perform.
Hopefully the producers will recognise the reasons for this films success and not lose the darkness in endless sequels based on big stars and silliness (Batman anyone?)
Overall a HUGE thumbs up here.
