Only to end up slightly deflated due to unreasonable expectations.
I wanted to stay reasonable, got worried about disappointment and still expected a lot at the same time. And now I am happy they delivered on every front as far as I am concerned.
I'm also wary of the constant drip feeding of scenes and images online as I don't want to see too much beforehand.
I thankfully avoided all spoilers and anything beyond the rather general pictures and scenes. The trailer doesn't really tell you much about the film.
A good review and it's nice to see that the dialogue was good enough that you weren't just watching for the action sequences. I just read the Empire review and it was pretty glowing also.
Great review and pretty much spot-on.
I do have one question. Was there a post credits scene?
There is one. It's mostly fun for fans of the comics. I'd call it mid-credits. After a really beautifully done credits sequence including the actors etc. but before the regular rolling font type. After that there was nothing, we felt so robbed.

The last point or so is always for later and the long term effect
