The Hyperions

OK for a movie that is basically a "one-man band" flick by the director John MacDonald. But most of it falls flat, and is mostly boring. I wish I could give it a better rating, since it's one of the first movie attempts by The Daily Wire, but I have to be honest here. Maybe next time they can produce a movie that is a little bit better than this. I like Cary Elwes , but unfortunately he put the dull in Mandullbaum here.

I saw the trailer and thought, "Oh, this looks fun."

I was wrong. It was really boring. I didn't care about any of the characters. The extremely limited super hero scenes were super cheap looking. I enjoyed the 70s aesthetics but that wasn't enough to carry the film. Especially considering that most of the movie took place in one room.

A lot of the reviews here feel the need to mention "The Daily Wire" being involved with this movie. That should neither be a pro nor a con. This movie sucked, and it doesn't matter who made it or why. If you like watching spoiled children complain about how much of a douche their father is (and he is), you'll love this movie. Because that's all it is. Anyone who gave this movie a 10 is lying.

Very odd, weird, interesting movie. This is something much different than we are used to seeing. Its a 'Super Hero" movie, but not really. Its more about the family of the super hero's.

Without giving any of the story away, this is more about the family of the super hero's than any action. So if you are thinking bombs and explosions etc, ain't happening.

This is a slower movie about the characters, not the action.

I would not be happy paying to see this in a theater, but was amused seeing it at home for free. Accept it for what it is and enjoy a movie based in the 60's early 70's and get your popcorn, relax and enjoy.

Funny, when the main character is talking on the phone, you can see the phone number and its for LA... and why is this rated R?? There was nothing to make this even a PG-13.. more like a PG movie.

The acting and props were fine for the budget available. The problem in the movie is it really seemed unsure of what it wanted to be. One moment the movie would feel like it wanted to be a comedy, which is where it was the best. The problem is it would suddenly go from a comedy to a family drama. Which can work but the character me needed to be better developed which the movie did not have time to do.

It felt like there was a much larger story to tell, but they did not have the time or budget to tell it. So it is not a bad movie to watch, but I would not recommend this as a feature to subscribe to the daily wire and watch.

Some movies don't really take off and don't really go anywhere, it's like the director is experimenting or thinks all their ideas are so cool or so cute... not!
