Title: Speechless.
Review: I was speechless when this movie ended, it was so bad. The screenplay was so flimsy that there was hardly any dialogue spoken, and the film itself was so long and drawn out that it was difficult to sit through. What I hated most about the film, however, was the portrayal of Eva Kant. In the comic, Eva was an elegant, brilliant woman who was Diabolik's equal. The movie made her nothing more than a sex kitten and a damsel in distress-helpless without her man! I'm surprised that the filmmakers let her out of the bedroom.I know that the original creators of the comic Diabolik helped write the story for this film, but I'm curious as to whether they were happy with the end result. I can tell you, I wasn't! If you really want to honor the memory of Angela and Luciana Giussani, read any English version of the comic that you can get. Hell, even the animated series Saban's Diabolik was quite enjoyable-and the portrayal of Eva Kant was much truer to the comic.
