I was skeptical to watch this. When it was first announced, I thought it was going to be a new adaptation of the original graphic novel, with an episodic format that would allow it to cover everything that the 2009 film wasn't able to.

Then I heard it was taking place in modern times and thought it was going to be an adaptation of the graphic novel that was trying to do its own thing, which really put me off. The trailers didn't help either, because they didn't look that interesting.

I decided to leave all my preconceptions at the door and watch it, and was surprised to find out that it is actually a sequel to the graphic novel, and it is actually pretty engrossing.

The cast is pretty solid, with both new and returning characters being portrayed in interesting ways, and just like the graphic novel, there are a few surprises along the way.
