Tonally weird, but the campiness adds to the charm. Filmed well, good soundtrack, and fantastic makeup. Other effects are hit or miss.
Sam Raimi kills it yet again. One of the most underrated superhero movies.
Overlooked Raimi gem. Neeson at his best
A crispy Liam Neeson in a Raimi super hero movie lets goooooooo
Most superhero movies these days are just cash grabs generated by studios. It’s refreshing to watch such an original and well directed movie
One of the best super hero films ever made
This superhero has a particular set of skills
Sam Raimi’s distinctive style and flair bolsters a so-so script and a bad supporting cast. Neeson is great and it’s a campy good time.
An excellent super hero film that feels more like a classic Universal horror flick. Raimi and the cast do a wonderful job. For Camp fans.
I have seen this as a child, I remember it was good one
