It's rare that a superhero film has no bad points and you actually care about the supporting characters,this film is just that ,Michelle Pfeiffer looks great (so does evangeline lilly) and Michael Pena adds some really funny comic moments to a film that is already a funny film ,all in all a great sequel to a great superhero film only let down by the character of Ghost ,with an all star supporting cast like michael Douglas and Lawrence Fishburn it's a great way to spend 2odd hrs

Between Se7en and Fight Club, David Fincher directed this forgotten thriller with Michael Douglas and Sean Penn. I love how the game starts very subdued and gradually builds in intensity throughout the film. The ending is really good the first time you see it; however, if you start to think about it too much, you start to question if it was really plausible.
Still highly recommended.
