Basically a boring movie.

Rating: 4/10 (8 November 2014)

Movies like this are the result of Hollywood embracing the world of comic books. I liked to read comics when I was around 10 or 11 years old, for a time, but comics are no substitute for having friends. In a way this is a superior film-if you are the type of person who likes to escape into a world of super hero's-like a 10 or 11 year old might. For an older crew I think it leaves much to be desired. It simultaneously supports the notion that all people in their 20's are talentless losers who have to rely on their father's reputation of they want to get anywhere in life and additionally supports the notion that older staid type are endowed with super powers-as if 'Daddy knows everything.' Its a quick study. I think it actually does a disservice to the actors involved with projects like this-because at its heart films like this are seriously sappy. Minus all the little jokes. Which only support a larger nihilistic premise. Plus bullets can't go around corners. Even if you wish it your very hardest.
