daft power fantasy

I'll admit right away: I stopped watching after the first fifteen minutes. There's some fun to be had in super-powerful action heroes, bulletproof martial-arts, guns with unlimited ammo in their magic magazines. But this was just silly, bordering on stupid.

If anything goes, then nothing matters. There is no real danger, the fictional stakes are supposedly high but effectively moot, and the motivations shallow.

I didn't waste more of my time on this one, and I think neither should you. Some accomplished actors earned their paycheck here; good for them. A WOMBAT.
