Colourful, well paced, excellent casting, visually striking.
The plot is "believable" in a cartoon kind of way, but that's enough.
Like all good comic book stories, it carries a moral and there is a degree of poetry in the way the narrative picks up on earlier scenes later on.
If there is a moral message to take home from it, to spell it out would spoil the whole thing (even if you have seen it).
Behind the explosive wizardry lurks a serious reflection on today's world, the sentiments and objectives to which it refers may be nearer to the truth than we would like to think.
Good cinema is about telling a story and delivering entertainment, I found this to be flawless.
