In Central City a hero is bringing hope. Fighting villainy and beating death, he is watching over his beloved and those within her limits. This is his city and he will protect it... for as long as he’s needed.
The scourge of Central City is a man known as The Octopus. He is evil with tentacles spreading throughout the city. His foul scheme will bring him eternal might, enabling him to conquer the world - beginning with this city... but she has a Spirit to protect her.
This is a simply written film, simply performed. Though visually stunning, the direction of this film seemed easily done, without challenge. Entertaining but, essentially, not compelling... still, like the graphic novel series {both the original [created by Will Eisner] and the current reinvention}, this isn’t for your children.
