Great Acting! The material was horrible!

Rating: 1/10 (29 May 2013)

let's take a well known fairy tail about kids burning a witch alive in her own oven, grow them up, and make them superheroes... Great Concept, LOUSY execution. Don't get me wrong, the acing by Renner, Atherton, Jensen and the rest, especially the Sheriff, was fabulous. They sold their characters as best they could. But when Jensen narrates this mediocre reveal about the past, the story, already in a shambles, completely fell apart. The end monologue, delivered by Jeremy Renner, was just out of place and sophomoric. They're treating the film as if it's a pilot for a WB TV show doomed to get cancelled after four or five episodes...
