Now that is an utterly awful superhero movie. Kind of sad, considering that together with Catwoman this is one of the few superhero movies with a female character at the helm and both movies are complete garbage. In this case it’s because the entire pacing of the movie is off. While the plot is just as much done by the number as in many other superhero movies, it could have worked. But the action comes too late, is too infrequent and drowns under the whole emotional angle of the movie. Not that the whole romance (and bonding with the victims experience) should have been shelved, but at least not blown up to the size that it had. In the end, it’s a movie full of missed chances that will bore you to death and once the action actually starts you’re already asleep.
