Firstly, I’m so thankful that it wasn’t entirely shot on Planet Earth :). Thus, that’s a plus point of this Movie! Secondly, the story is the admixture of John Wick (How Dare One Touch My Dog), to, the same ultimate Revenge story. Thus, from the story point of view, it is banal, and therefore you don’t have much to dissect to write in extensive! YET, there are some things that was worth watching for!
Now why I went to watch this yesterday, because, I like Superman. So, I wanted to know how his cousin looks like! And what I found? She has the power of Superman; She is immunized to what can even kill Superman; despite she bleeds; and a pinch of behavioural characteristics that’s been adapted from Batman -> you know, being gloomy all the time; enjoying by herself, not interested in the daily Thomas Crown Affair, until, someone like Joker comes to instigate; in this case, it was KREM!
But I’ve just one complaint! The Musical Songs! They could’ve chosen from the Jukebox many more, rather, the musical songs included, were more country specific, despite having such a great background score! If you’ve seen the trailer, then in between there’s for a split second this electric guitar is played, and I honestly went to the movie more than knowing the cousin of Superman; to basically listen to the musical scores, which I anticipated would be enjoyable! You know sometimes, there’s a split-second moment what attracts you, and that I heard in the trailer; but alas, that was missing in the entire movie itself!
Now, beyond the CGI, in which the Hollywood has already perfected, what else it can offer! Means, an Addition to that! For example, almost everyone once upon a time thought that only Kung-Fu can be expected from the East Asian Cinema! But then came the alliance of John Woo and Chow Yun-Fat, that changed that perception! The same goes for the Hollywood! Once upon a time we thought only those deformed faces can define Horror flicks with loud music, but, then came Obsession & Companion, which changed the perception how horror flicks can also be made by Hollywood.
And as much I liked Superman, I liked his cousin also, SuperGIRL! Yet, beyond those CGI, what else! For example, Man Of Steel too was full of CGI, but that speed of light action sequences introduced for the first time, altered its Genre.
All said done, a good weekend watch! 😊
