ha ha ha ha-- it's what rob said-- the opening exclamation. to me it looks different. see if you can tell

¡¡¡¡¡¡¡ iiiiiiiii

anyway, the movie was good but in itself not THAT good. fact is 75% of that movie's glory belongs to the protagonist, who is simply an otherwordly creature to behold. a bit of a religious experience, this one, and in the place i was whenever they had her closeups or whatever you could hear a pin drop-- the whole audience was agape-- women, men, children, we all worshipped.

before some fool says "i don't want to here about your penis"-- this is not about penises or pornography or arousal, really-- it was more like beholding an ideal rather than a person. so a bit like church, really, if there were any actual gods in church. camille paglia was right all along.

as for the rest, yes it was a good movie and well directed, though maybe a bit too long so i had to go piss at some point (they serve beer), and while they butchered greek mythology and there were some problems with the cinematography (3D movies are just too fucking dark, and i don't watch 3D cuz i get headaches) , it was a good job overall with a good mixture of drama, humor, action, high-minded preaching, etc. pleased to see that a woman did the job better than the many bros who supposedly rule the action genre (lol michael bay).

and i didn't mind the scenes where the action was slowed down and/or frozen-- for one thing it gave us all a greater chance to ogle in awe. and besides the visual glory it made sense visually as it sorta looked like a comic book panel---the frozen frames are precisely what a comic artist would draw. so all good and it was not abused/overused for my standards.

plus extra points for one of the sidekicks looking like franck ribéry-- i can't post a photo here cuz this will erase my scribbling (it happened earlier) but google the guy. ha ha ha.
