Review by adventure7

It refreshing spin to the superhero genre, but not that refreshing i guess... It was meidocre at best. The performances of the father and the guy from Breaking Bad i found really good, the other actors were ok (there is a lot of crying without tears type of acting). The cinematography was fine and nothing special. Some sequences were handheld and were edited and directed in a way film student would. There were barely any interesting shots. The effects at times weren't the best, but all around it was believable. The film wasn't scary too. Just panning or cut shot in which something apears in front of the charecter and when she/he looks away and looks back there's nothing there... there weren't that many jumpscares which is a plus i guess. At times it was violent and i think the gore factor added to the movie and i didn't expect that at all. There were a lot of cheesy and stupid momments in which the characters explain things to the audience, because the writers think we're stupid, but you can see some things a mile away, although i would have to say it wasn't that predictable as i thought it would be. We're introduced to this black fat kid who bullies the main charecter and you expect they would do something with him, but they forgot he existed in the second half so his inclusion in the movie was pointless. It was dissapointing movie, but i'll not try to stop you from watching, you may like it. I just found it boring at times and not that interesting. For a concept like that you would expect a little bit more but i look at the movie and see missed opportunity.
