Not Your Father's Superhero Show

Rating: 10/10 (30 November 2004)

It's not exactly Toy Story. It's more adult, only without a single profane word. There is death in this movie. Also, most important to me, none of the usual superhero clichés. What little there were wasn't objectionable. The kids weren't annoying. Thank heaven the baby's role was kept to a minimum. The soundtrack is totally original. Some cues are reminiscent of a Bond film, but sounds nothing like a Batman or Superman film. The music is all over the place. Buy the soundtrack and listen to Track 9: Kronos Unveiled. Very melodic, slowly increasing in intensity. The end titles kick ass and all the other tracks are excellent! The timing of this film is dead on. Forget it's a great cartoon, it's a flat-out great movie.
