Ratings and reviews

Alright, so I think its important to start off by saying that you shouldn't expect this movie to be the best movie you've ever seen, but when you think about and realize that the origin of this movie was from an indiegogo campaign and was not produced conventionally, it's pretty darn good. It's very well done, and tells a story that actually isn't one you have probably seen before. If you enjoy Black Mirror, welcome. You'll love this.

It's a fairly down to earth telling of what the X-Men comics were built on. Fear of the powered people, the "other". It's not a super flashy movie which suits the subject really well in my opinion. While it's world filled with powered people, the focus is them as people first, with real foibles and motivations. I definitely recommend it to any that thinks superhero type movies have to have suits, capes, and flair. Kudos to the Amells for getting this done.

Being between living in the present or the future, Lincoln City is way different from any Arrowverse series cities such as Star City, Central City, National City, or Freeland. Never thought Lincoln City is a police state and residents who has supernatural Metahuman abilties to survive from a Crisis. It's cool Stephen Amell who played Oliver Queen/Green Arrow on Arrow and other shows within the Arrowverse series along with his cousin, Robbie Amell who played Ronnie Raymond/Firestorm on The Flash
