Review by Stewart Loud
Did you ever have that conversation
with your mates when you were a kid at school, about how great it
would be if they made one massive comic book movie that had loads of
characters in it like some sort of special event cross over? I did.
We'd talk about who'd be in it, what stories they could use, possible
set pieces and ideas for the action scenes. Even play with the idea
of writing to film companies with our ideas. but deep down we were
always sure it would never actually happen and even if it did it'd
likely just turn out to be a load of shit that bore little
resemblance to the comics it was based on. Comic book movies when I
was a nipper were few and far between and what was around very rarely
came close to doing the source material justice.
