05/02/2022 What if you combined a superhero movie with Saw? Well, this would be it. Directed, written and produced by Jason Trost, who made The FP and also stars in this movie as Charge, this movie finds him, Cutthroat (Lucas Till, who was Havok in X-Men: First Class and MacGyver in the reboot of the series), The Wall (Lee Valmassy) and Shadow (Sophie Merkley) waking up in an abandoned town, their powers gone and facing their arch foe Rickshaw (James Remar, always amazing) in the kind of death trap Arcade used to put the X-Men through. This is probably as close as we'll get to a Brat Pack movie. I kind of liked way more than most reviews I've seen, as I liked the end of the superteam dynamics of the film, the way we learn about the heroes dynamics and origins through the actions and how Charge must continually make tough choices. Did you read stuff like Grips and Aircel comics in the 90s? Or the post-Image grim and gritty comics made by comics fans that did one comic and never another one again? Do you like Stephen Platt? Then you're going to like this way more than the average filmgoer. There's also a sequel, All Superheroes Must Die 2: The Last Superhero, that I need to find. See more 04/15/2020 This movie had so much potential and it failed at some the delivery. some of the characters weren't very good but you could still like some of them. When someone died you could be upset but you couldn't be sad except for Cutthroat's death that scene had the most emotion some of the acting wasn't very good. But this movie was saved by Lucas Till's character he had the most character and best personality and when he died it made the other CH's more likable. I will watch the second film and hopefully it will do better then this movie. See more 01/19/2020 3/10 awful. Clearly a very low budget and it showed. See more 11/25/2015 Considering the budget, these guys have made a pretty well job. See more 01/05/2015 An ambitious idea with a tone like that of Watchmen. A short, incredibly dark deconstruction of the modern day superhero. However, a lot of the twists are forced and make little to no sense.

See more walter m @Harlequin68 09/21/2014 "All Superheroes Must Die" starts with Charge(Jason Trost, who also wrote and directed) waking up in the middle of a deserted street, battered and bruised. He is not alone, as he is also soon joined by his superhero comrades, Cutthroat(Lucas Till), Shadow(Sophie Merkley) and The Wall(Lee Valmassy). See, it seems their archenemy Rickshaw(James Remar) is tired of having his ass handed to him on a regular basis, so he has forced these heroes to play games in order to save the townspeople, on his own terms, of course. And if round one does not go well, then there is always the bonus round. "All Superheroes Must Die" proves that sometimes low budget is the best way to go, even with superhero movies, as it allows the filmmakers to take risks with the characters that larger productions could not dream of making.(It is a neat idea to get around special effects by de-powering the characters.) Granted, it is does start out kind of nihilistic but eventually once the viewer learns more about this world and the characters, we come to care about them and get valuable insight about the nature of heroism. Plus, James Remar really seems to be enjoying himself. See more Read all reviews
