What a cinematic world we live in, where superheroes have become our mythological Gods and allegories, and our best working filmmakers are using comic inspirations to tell wildly crowd-pleasing and entertaining stories.

That said, while the 3D conversion is pretty admirable, there are scenes in this movie that don't really beg for 3D effects, so I'm dropping this to a 4--still a strong score.
