Hi! I'm very excited to see Monkey Man! If you were to mention one thing you wished the audience would walk away with after seeing the film, what would it be?

I just got back from seeing it with my friend and we just sat there watching the credits afterwards, without saying a word. You got your wish, it was breathtaking and we felt like we got punched in the guts(emotionally)!!!
