Add a CommentI really enjoyed this movie. Not what I expected. Better. Similar to a low budget Kick Ass. Graphic violence throughout intermixed with some truly funny moments. Kind of a basic plot, but well done by all involved. The story was much more violent than I expected it to be, so beware of that. Emily Page is great as the psycho sidekick.
oh man no good
I was cracking up through most of this superhero spoof. Rainn Wilson, co-executive producer, was perfectly suited for the role of the super-dork "Crimson Bolt". Ellen Page was really cute (although a tad sadistic) as his sidekick "Bolty". (I can't believe what happened to her!) Kevin Bacon always makes a convincing scumbag/villain (the '94 flick, "The River Wild", w/Meryl Streep, comes to mind). Small part for Liv Tyler. Personally, I didn't find it necessary to ridicule Christianity, but apparently they did. And evidently *NOT* for *ANY* persons with *NO* sense of humor.
I returned this item in a different case.
HUH !? I don't get it. A cheap, pathetic, no budget movie that was NOT funny at all. There's something wrong if you think this is comedy in any form. The woody harrelson movie was on a higher level (at least on any level) than this "movie". I feel sorry for Mr. Bacon stooping to acting on this level, he must be really broke and desperate for this kind of work. A great way to trash your name & acting career, sorry Mr. Bacon. NOT for any audience with ANY sort of taste in entertainment, including "kiddies".
u know woody and kat ???
