Wie ich ein Superheld wurde

My family watched this tonight. We enjoyed it immensely.

The characters seem much more down to earth and relatable. Then, there are the usual tropes but they are executed in a more intimate manner than many of the DC/Marvel/et al stories.

I am hoping this becomes a series that Netflix helps to develop.

I would recommend it - especially on a boring, late, Thursday night.

This is pretty much France's answer to Project Power, and like that movie this one as well was just okay. I didn't care about any of the characters, the story was predictable, and the score was incredibly bland & uninspired. It does have pretty good performances, some cool fights, decent visuals and cinematography, and above average directing.

Better go in with low expectations and you might not mind it for what it is.

And it's a bonus that my French continues to improve as I am entertained by more and more interesting French movies. Interesting characters and plot line, I enjoyed following different story lines and solid production values. Let's hope we see a lot more of these "real" characters that seem more down to earth in a strange but familiar Parisian world.

What a great movie. We did not want it to be finished.

Much much better that all the terrible movies that have been out there lately.

Highly recommended!

Not awesome, but entertaining film about an alternative Paris where there are many (generally not so powerful) superheroes. Drug dealers are selling a new addictive made with... superhero blood! It makes users emulate the very same superpower for some time. Then, superheroes are being hunted. A policeman who loves candies, seems unruly and has a fruendship with a few former superheroes is the one who is designated to deal with crimes involving superheoes. A new partner will work with him, a policewoman, and their relationship did not start well. The rest of the story is well done, although predictable. Details are being added and they make sense. Pack Royal is a nice superhero team, and so is the relationship Moreau has with its members. I did not like the main villain, although his background story is interesting enough. Worth watching. I will deffinitely watch the sequel if Netflix makes it.
