Einkunnir og umsagnir

I'm a big fan of Joe Mangeniello, but if you are looking to buy this movie, I suggest waiting till the price drops. Here's my reasoning why. This movie brings to light the story of an unlikely modern-day, dare I say it, super hero. A bit bumpy in it's plot, and not nearly as super-powered action packed as I had hoped. But, it was an... interesting... way to tell a story. Being someone who loves super-heroes, I was a bit disappointed not to see abilities in the work nearly at all. The cartoon scenes were a bit much, but did bring to light much needed information. The ending was a bit anti-climatic, but had an interesting twist. However, there was a massive reveal that ended up leaving us with more questions. In the end, this movie was exciting in places, and not so exciting in others, and left us with more questions than when it started. But, Joe Mangeniello is hot, so can't complain too much.

The premise is nice, however the execution is terrible. If you're looking for something that fits in the superhero genre you'll want to look elsewhere. Dialogue is passable and the action is miniscule. The only saving grace is Joe Mang.(Max Fist) & Skylan B(Hamster). I knew it was low budget going in, but there is no excuse for poor execution of the premise. There is little resolution of some of the plot lines by the end of the film. I wouldn't have watch this...but quarantine life. If you have nothing else to do...I'd still tell you to pick something else.

I was quite disappointed with this movie. A LOT of potential which never panned out to anything meaningful... some pretty serious pacing and plot structure problems... just never ended up capitalizing on any of it's component parts.
