    Can't leave less than 1 star

    It is unusual that a super hero can be so bad as to have to stop watching it less than 15 minutes into the film. This however is such a a movie and if able to leave less than one star I would have. The acting is worse than a grade school drama project. It is likely I spent more time writing this review than the time and effort put into the script. I don't mind the comic book characters are not mainstream. It is sad that fan films show greater effort than productions such as this one. This production should have never ever made it out of the editing room without simply being scrapped. Alas viewers have to suffer.

    Genuinely Masterful

    When I first watched this I wasn't so sure about it's quality but as I am now on my 312th viewing I would consider this one of the 14 best movies of all time. I would like to point out the performance by Mark Courneyea.. It was an enlightening experience and every time I think about this movie I cry just a little.

    Surprisingly good compared to later shark flicks by the same people

    The people behind this film are notorious for making movies meant to be "so bad it's good" a la Sharknado. You'll see the same faces involved in Jurassic Shark and Raiders of the Lost Shark. I was introduced to these movies through I Hate Everything's review of Jurassic Shark and went on to watch Raiders of the Lost Shark, then ultimately this movie. With the two shark movies as the basis, Avenging Force is surprisingly good. It's still not a great movie but it has a lot more charm and better production in general than later works by the same crew. It's at least worth a watch if you like amateur films that don't have a budget but made a good attempt.

    Worst film EVER!

    As good as a shortfilm of any highschool kids. U cant watch this garbage. Worst actors and maybe recored with a iphone 3.

    Garbage

    Whoever made this movie should be immediately tracked down wherever he is sleeping right now, then he should be dragged out into the street and shot. This total garbage pail of a movie should then be collected by movie lovers everywhere and every single copy should be burned until not a single watchable frame is left. I am not saying that lightly, this movie is such a worthless piece of garbage that it needs to be destroyed.

    Not sure what else to say but I have to write 10 lines apparently so.... I guess I hate the movie because it is confusing with awful writing, the jokes are awful and there are way too many of them, the acting is bad, but mostly it just looks awful with bad video and audio quality, and it seems like it was directly as a school video project by a random kid who doesn't even care what he is making.

    Terrible movie. Avoid this at all costs if you value your sanity and time.

    • Trivia
      The character Bart Hill goes by the code-name Double Dare in the movie. His original comic incarnation was known as Daredevil. However, due to licensing issues with Marvel's hero of the same name, this version uses the code-name that comic writer Roy Thomas gave Hill during the series Alter Ego in the mid 1980's.
