Is it deep and thought provoking, ala Batman, or just good fun, ala X-Men?

It's more just good fun. But as joey said, it has my favorite living actor in it, doing what he does best on screen (and thankfully now in life too) -- playing an excruciating gifted man in search of a redemption arc. :)

Hi Carl:) How've you been? I don't see you hanging around the choir board too much... oh, wait... that wasn't you. Where are you hanging out now? Negative fruit?

Seriously, though, he's absolutely brilliant in Chaplin and Restoration.

he deserved an oscar for chaplin...
even playing a self-portrait self-destructive druggie in less than zero he is amazing...
well, maybe that film was before it was totally a self-portrait...
glad to see he's made it past all that......

I guess in his case, no news is good news! Now an Oscar or two?!?
