1/5
Feels more like mates mucking around with a camera than a proper movie. Go to Full Review
Peter Bradshaw Guardian 11/29/2012
2/5
The film has the knockabout feel of a kids' TV show on CBBC, which is no bad thing, but the comedy doesn't quite come together. Go to Full Review
Robbie Collin Daily Telegraph (UK) 11/29/2012
0/5
Low-budget caper about a stolen comic book that is, with the best will in the world, unfit for human consumption. Go to Full Review
Daniel Green CineVue 02/06/2019
2/5
May be rough at best, but at least shows far more potential for future creative prosperity than many a micro budget effort. Go to Full Review
Jeremy Aspinall Radio Times 10/21/2013
3/5
If you're prepared to overlook its financial shortcomings, then you'll enjoy what is an entertaining and knowing little yarn. Go to Full Review

3.5/5
Here is a film with humour and energy and heart, made by people whose primary objective appears to have been to make a movie they themselves would like to see. Go to Full Review

05/06/2022 why ?????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????? This movie actually made 0 sense. I would rather watch Birdemic: Shock and Terror everyday for the rest of my life before I watch a single minute of this movie. See more 06/05/2015 I have been looking for this film since I heard about it a few years ago, I found it last week on blinkbox and bought it, I really enjoyed the film, I thought it was funny and endearing although you could tell it was made on a tight budget I don't think this film could have been better even with a bigger budget. I really enjoyed Derek dick (Fish) as uncle Joey. See more 03/13/2014 kinda like a big screen version of kevin smith's 'comic book heroes' See more 08/11/2013 What could be an amusing story is blighted by poor acting,poor direction and editing by a two year old. If a school set a project to create a film, this would be it. See more Read all reviews
