A Hero Is Born

Rating: 9/10 (28 April 2002)

This is one incredible movie. It is to be relished by every kid (or grown up for that matter) that ever dreamed of waking up with the power & abilities of their favorite comic book or movie hero.
What makes it more enjoyable is Hero is the average Joe with average Joe problems (shaky relationship with wife & kid, dead-end job, etc.) and he has powers he has ignored and been afraid to understand. Bruce Willis is excellent as a modern day Superman with powers beyond that of mortal man. Sam L. Jackson is wonderfully evil as the villain (Lex Luthor w/a Joker mentality) You "Will Believe Comic Book Heroes Walk The Earth".
