Poor writing, and poor supportive cast. and some logical slip ups now and there. i think the character talks too much. . when you have little to say and you know ur writing competency is not .. dostoyevski like .. try to move toward a slient movie as much as possible. 2c

Hamster is a black teenage aspiring to be an investigative reporter like Hunter Thompson. He finds his subject in homeless man Max Fist (Joe Manganiello) who claims to be a hero with superpowers. He comes from another world and the problem is that his powers only exist in his home world. Hamster's sister gets into trouble with drug dealers after stealing their money.

I really like the premise but I would slow-roll the comic book animation. The first half of the movie shouldn't have the animation. The audience should be conflicted about Max Fist's story and his home world. He should be equally crazy and equally heroic. I like the fight against the car and there should be more of that. This is smaller indie and the movie struggles to be a big action superhero movie that it wants to be especially in the third act. All in all, I like the characters, the actors, and the premise.

Im not sure if people were trying to compare this to block buster films with 150 million dollar budgets. Apples and bananas, come on. I know these are just other peoples opinions and I am doing the same but give the people who put the work in credit. Sometimes stories require imagination to fill in the blanks.

I thought this was well done. The mesh between the worlds was well executed and the visuals were crisp. Im not sure what the lack of character development comments were either. The entire movie is the main character narrating his past through the eyes of a young writer.

The acting was spot on for the story and the length.

If this was the directors debut film I tip my hat to him and his team. You can tell that is was well executed . I am excited to see the future films that are produced. Its nice to see something out there that is not made to fit everyones marketing ploy to reach "every demographic".

Great job to all involved!

The title says it all. It's way better than 5 stars. The difference between 5 and 7 is don't watch or watch. That's a huge difference. It's really well directed and decently written.

Needless to say not an original one. The concept of this movie has been used by the sci-fi sector in so many ways, it may even bore you when you first started the movie. Later things get interesting because you too wonder what is real and what is not alongside the main character. This movie caught my eye because of its beautiful poster and I can't say I regret watching it but I am slightly disappointed because even though I watched this without any expectations I guess a small part of me wanted this to be good. As I said, I loved the main idea and I would love to see it handled better but not as a 90mins movie but as a tv mini-series. The format would have been more suitable because there was no chance to see any character depth or to understand why someone is doing something other than just guessing. Action scenes could have handled better if this was a tv series alongside well... everything. I don't recommend it if you are hoping to watch a really good movie but if you wanna watch a movie that could trigger your imagination to think of a better scenario based on this one, then you can give it a try because you can't help but to think the ways it could have been better.
