A different way of telling a story
It was OK. I don't see why everyone loves it so much. It wasn't very smart or deep or well-directed.
Great story, amazing characters, superb action, enthralling cinematography. Yes, this is something I am glad I spent money on.
While it is a pity that the story wasn't told with more visual finesse, this is trivial compared to our real-world problems. It takes a good movie to put that into perspective.
