Super

Forget Capt. America and those overrated Avengers. This is the best super hero movie ever made; at least it is if you like super hero movies that are dark, edgy (and violent) comedies that have more to do with characters than anything done by anyone in a cape. Directed by James Gunn, it’s the story of a sad man named Frank (Rainn Wilson) who goes off the rials when his long-time girlfriend leaves him. He makes himself a costume, picks up a wrench and goes out to fight crime as The Crimson Bolt. Only he ‘s really bad at it. Things don’t get any better when he picks up a sidekick named Boltie (Ellen Page), either. But never forget that this isn’t a movie about Good Vs. Evil. It’s a move about a good man fighting for his very soul.
