I only watched this movie due to 7/10 ratings.
Very rarely I don't agree with the ratings on IMDB.
It seems like the story was all over the place.
They wanted to make a superhero type of movie but they
did almost same thing which has been done 1000 times before.
Nothing new Nothing special. Movie got so boring after the first
half that I kept forwarding it thinking it might get better but it didnt.
Nothing worked for this movie, Can not come up with anything positive
about the movie!!!!

As some other reviewers have stated, they took a lot of what has become tired and tedious in our current super hero movies, thrown it out, and done something nice and fresh (as much as can be done with a superhero movie anyway).Real issues, real people, real concern for the characters. You see movies like this and wonder why our current American producers in Hollywood can't seem to find an original story, director, or thought.I swear, it's gotta be drugs.

Italy just got its first superhero movie, a crook satisfied with his loneliness and who doesn't care for his health. He is not your typical hero, actually he starts his superhero career with the stealing of an ATM. Clearly, this genre is not common in the Italian cinema, but the director and the writers did a pretty good job. They adapted the concept of a hero in the city of Rome (which I think it's a first), gave him a super-villain to fight and a lunatic girl to take care of, in order to discover his true self and use his powers for the greater good. Unlike Hancock, whose vice is alcohol, Enzo loves yogurt. After he steals money, he fills his fridge with a lot of yogurt. He is also a pervert who constantly watches porn. Despite all his vices, the world he lives in is not better than him. Terrorist attacks, gang related kills and a lot of people who appear to be indifferent with the world they live in. There are some similarities between Kick-Ass and this film, especially the part where Zingaro assaults the Camorra clan on some Italian pop song. Hit-Girl does the same with some thugs, only she does it on punk rock. Of course the movie has some weaknesses. The plot seems a little straightforward, maybe because they aren't looking for a sequel. Could have been a little funnier, but I think the director wanted the hero to remain in a dark side. The scene when he tried to put his toe back made me laugh. (Deadpool would make fun of him). I think the Italians should make more films like this, they are obviously going on the right track. Hollywood should take some notes from foreign films. I recommend this film even if you know from the beginning how it will end, the cast makes sure you will have fun and be thrilled by their good performance.

Gabriele Mainetti? A cinematic genius who has created a film worthy of note with a cast of characters made to measure. Plot, scores,sets and actors joined local interpretation make the winning feature film.Rating? Above my expectations, so I booked the ticket immediately for second screening. I love Pulp and Film Heroes, two kinds nonexistent in Italian film productions.Big Gabriele Mainetti.Cheers !!
