It was definately hardcore. I was really impressed with the whole production and how sucessfull they were in creating the experience of watching a comic book. The camera angles, the lighting effects (Elijah Wood's glasses), the classic narrative character monologues, and especially the way people flew through the air whenever something was blown up in their face, they were hit really, really hard, or run over by some crazy broad in a Porsche, was what made the movie for me. I definately recommend it.
