For me it worked because the bloody curse of modern movies, CGI, didn't overpower evertyhing in sight. I couldn't believe it ...there were humans in this! <br /> That was my main gripe with the last Harry Potter movie, the CGI swamped everything else and HP, Ron, Hermione just became lost in amongst all the flames, explosions, etc, etc,.<br /> for me this is the best of the super hero movies this year, beating even the solid X-Men, both because of the sparing use of cGI and it was a new character to the big screen. It was a refreshing change next to some of this yearsoferings. <br /> I'm a real Haley Atwell fan, and I'm pleased she wasn't mis-used in an eye-candy role as she is a fine actress, and above that sort of nonsense.BRENThttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15953231992674091002noreply@blogger.com
