Comment je suis devenu super-héros

This is pretty much France's answer to Project Power, and like that movie this one as well was just okay. I didn't care about any of the characters, the story was predictable, and the score was incredibly bland & uninspired. It does have pretty good performances, some cool fights, decent visuals and cinematography, and above average directing.

Better go in with low expectations and you might not mind it for what it is.

What a great movie. We did not want it to be finished.

Much much better that all the terrible movies that have been out there lately.

Highly recommended!

My family watched this tonight. We enjoyed it immensely.

The characters seem much more down to earth and relatable. Then, there are the usual tropes but they are executed in a more intimate manner than many of the DC/Marvel/et al stories.

I am hoping this becomes a series that Netflix helps to develop.

I would recommend it - especially on a boring, late, Thursday night.

I was kind of surprised at how much I liked this movie. It's a nice take on the Superhero genre. The acting is good, as is the CGI. There's a little humor mixed in with the action. The only fault I have with the film is the way the music and dialog are mixed. In my opinion, the music is unnecessary loud even when there is no need for it. This is a fun movie.

This was a great film! I watched the English dubbed version so maybe it made a difference vs those who watched with subtitles. Expectations could be another factor which has resulted, thus far, in what I think is a low rating (5.8, 23dec2021).

Another reviewer noted that it was very similar to Powers (2015) (6.7 rating) but done much better. Having seen that series, this was exactly what I was thinking as I viewed it. I agree - it was done much better.

In a world where a percentage of the population has long had some form of superpowers, the novelty has worn off. So the film doesn't try and wow the viewer with super-powered beings. It creates this world and draws the viewer into it - no novelty, no pizazz... just everyday life with a story line built around a drug that enhances non-powered individuals.

The result is a story that's lower key and can be compared to films like Code 8 (2019) and Project Power (2020). Like 'Code 8', superpowers are common place. Like 'Project Power', enhanced human abilities are achieved through an external source.

As much as I enjoyed the TV series and the two films linked here, I thought this film was the best of this particular set.

Would love to see this evolve into a franchise series with the same cast. Everyone was excellent in their roles: very real-world portrayals, humane, complex and engaging.
