It's not good. Not good at all.
smtrussell23 May 2018
Director Gerald Crum, if one could be so bold as to call him that, clearly went to the Ed Wood School of Film. IMDB says this 'film' had a $2k budget. Doubtful. Pretty sure they could have bought either a script, an actor, or a camera for $2000. This project had none of those things. They obviously just rounded up some homeless folks, pointed a first generation iPhone at them, and told them to start talking. "Talk about what?" they asked. Gerald said, "It doesn't matter."

Justin Armstrong Sucks
bnapa25 January 2019
Justin Armstrong can't act his way out of a paper bag. This movie is already a fail, but his lack of talent makes it unable to watch.

Really bad
lisszacariassen7937 January 2020
First I just want to say that if you're gonna review a movie, you actually have to watch it. The WHOLE movie. It wasn't easy, but I did it. What can I say? It seems to me like a bunch of friends got together and made a movie as a high school project or something with a budget of...0 $, only most of the cast are older than high school age. These aren't actors, and it's NOT worth 80 min of your life!

Just terrible...
daveamac19 August 2019
I watched the first few minutes of this home-made nonsense and that was enough. Avoid at all costs. I hope the filmakers will gain a bit more experience and make better titles than this garbage.

There is more filters than content. Its like when you were a kids and you and your friends pretended to be superheros except less organized. No direction, no logical progression, no context to anything, no reason. They just made up dumb costumes and filmed them doing random stuff and gave it to an editor who just deepfried it in a hundred different visual and audio filters. Only watch super drunk or high.

Waste of a disc
hannahnicole-291892 December 2020
This poor disc, being force to hold this movie. I weep for it, it would have been kinder to put a dog colonoscopy on it. Literally feel like suing to get 80 mins of my life back, cant believe I paid actual money to see this

If you think of it as sitting down to read a comic book, it's actually pretty great
christopher-orndorff23 August 2018
I enjoyed its unique style. This movie has got beat up a lot because of the low production values and perceived poor acting, but some of those things are stylistic choices (such as the deliberate over-acting in the Sin-City movies) that I think worked. Rather than trying making comic book scenes look real like big budget comic movies do, they went the other way and made the movie look and feel more like a comic book.

The dialogue is not organic, but it isn't organic in comic books either. In comics, the characters mostly speak in the language of exposition because that medium requires it in order to work well; and that unusual style of dialogue is reproduced here. Is it cheesy? Sure, but dialogue in comics is cheesy. It adds to the overall feel of reading a comic book in a new way.

The thing I like most about this movie is how the characters and plot are slowly revealed in an intriguing way, gradually giving just enough information to keep the story moving while maintaining the mystery of the events leading up to the film.

It's definitely not for everyone, but if you watch it with the mentality of reading a dark and gritty comic book instead of expecting your Marvel movie itch to be scratched; there is merit to it's unusual style.

Do not let the low reviews fool you...
nevadajohnson8 August 2018
This, my friends, is a work of art.When I sat down to watch this movie, what I received was nothing like what I had expected. We start with a timeline that's been completely flipped on its head. You as the viewer are like an infant, complete naivete. But as you travel though the ins and outs of this film...

You gain enlightenment.

This movie has everything. You'll laugh, you'll cry. It's really that deep.
