I enjoyed the montage scene at the begining that introduced the world the movie is set in, it also seemed one of the few creative component of the movie that wasn't a direct adaptation of a scene featured in the comic. Snyder's biggest achievement is not really anything that we see in the movie so much that he got the movie finally made and released, which considering it was a almost 3 hours, R-rated, with non-mainstream non-brand-name super heroes played by actors I have never heard of, and featuring CGI blue wangs, that has to count for something?</p> Saw it last night, I thought it was ok adaptation but I would have rather seen it as an HBO miniseries or such.
