[Mockery]

It was a big let-down. My main gripes:

1) Extremely weak story.

2) Annoying music at times when they could have much more appropriate ambient/atmospheric sounds playing.

3) Dave McKean did TOO MUCH with the art. He went overboard and saturated the movie with his style so much that it was painful to watch. Seriously, I like McKean's artwork in books, but what he did with this film only made me want to leave.

And speaking of which...

This movie marks only the 2nd time I've walked out of a theatre before the movie even finished. It was that bad.
