This is one of the best movies I’ve seen in a very long time. You have to go and see this on the big screen.

Most times when you watch a movie that has to do with powers you'll get about ten minutes in the beginning of the film and then we move into the usual suspect story beats we've all seen. This film is much different. It's like a SuperHero origin story on steroids. The movie is a trip, and we spend most of the time in a first hand experience of the main character Joe as his life is manipulated and mutilated to turn him into something greater. Honestly I had no idea what to expect going into this, but I've never really seen a movie like this before, but I really dug it. Fresh concept, emotional acting, tripped out script. Happy I checked it out, hopefully they get to do more with the concept!

The only thing that is good in this movie are the CGI effects. Everything else is not good (bordering - bad). You can watch the first 15-20 minutes and than jump to the last 10 minutes.

I mean not only this movies makes Thanos and all 6 stones look like a pile of nothing and even withouth a story at some points. But Thanos is an insect in comparison with the last part of this movie... 5 for the movie that it came out okeish plus one budget, plus creativity. The rest of the reviews will cover the acting etc.. Main transomation guy' acting level is minus 50... Yeah, if you consider acting of the main character, this movie goes to - 2. But the originality and parody of the script, a nice touch of mind twist, and it's finishing brings it up to 7.5. And because there was like a 5 seconds 100 percent copy of my life where a dialog took place that was just every word exact word in word. With that said I'd rather be a fan of an idea and a theory of this creature than whatever heresy you can find in avengers and other interesting but nonsense to reality and staged for masses sgi monsters and over buffed with sgi throw-ups all over those none-rogue starwars. Sgi in this picture is top shelf from old school. It's cheap for today but it's good done, no slacking there at all. Will be looking for a book of it and forward a sequel without bad acting!
