A new French superhero movie on Netflix. While superheroes have assimilated into Parisian society, a new drug gives super powers to mere mortals.
This movie tried to be a crime thriller and a some kind of a superhero origin story. While they did a decent job with the former, they failed with the latter.
Our main character was a detective who had to work with new detective, and they had to work on the main case. The clues connected together nicely, and while the case was predictable in the end, I was still interested in the journey.
The universe of this movie wasn't anything new. Many people had different quirks while others did not possess any. This movie didn't add anything special while showing a few amount of quirks that were cliche.
Most of the characters were boring and not special. The villain was not at all menacing and had little backstory that make him interesting. The main character, despite having a traumatic past that was actually decent, still wasn't special enough to make the movie stand out.
The crime thriller seemed to dominate the story. This became detrimental because the superhero aspect felt like a side arc, which was what the movie was supposed to focus on.
Overall, a mediocre movie that didn't live up to its title. 5/10.
