Saw it last night and loved it. I will admit that Snyder's slo-mo scenes were excessive, but overall they didn't bother me. I also didn't mind the blue penis or the fixed ending (rather found it interesting how it was done). Could've done without Dreiberg's butt-pumping and pelvic thrusting, but meh, whatever.

I also found the acting to be fine in its own way. It had some cheesy parts, sure, but this movie wasn't made to win Oscars. The actors played their parts well, with obvious standouts by Jackie Earle Haley and Jeffrey Dean Morgan. And who else loved Matt Frewer as Moloch?

Overall I thought it was great. Snyder and crew translated it well from book-to-screen. Out of all the films based on Moore's work, this one might be the best of the bunch.
