It's better than you expect. ...

Rating: 10/10 (10 January 2011)

I enjoyed this movie a lot, by far my favorite of 2010. I unfortunately missed it in the Theater but discovered it later on DVD.
I expected (like most people I know) a cheesy 'Superbad' type superhero movie, boy was I wrong. A simple but engaging story, excellent directing and perfect casting. Great performances by Aaron Johnson, Nicolas Cage and Chloe Moretz.
This is the kind of movie that superhero fans have always hoped for. It's made like it really could happen in real life. not with multi thousand dollar costumes & props like the 100 million dollar 'Hollywood' versions.
I highly recommend this movie to anyone. It's entertaining and satisfying from start to finish. I've seen it several times and could sit down and watch it again anytime.
(I can't wait for the sequel !).
