Maybe I'm the odd one out but I genuinely like movies like this. I wasn't expecting to be blown away by this and of course you can tell from the beginning exactly how it will end, but I don't mind that. In fact, I found it highly entertaining! The actors look like they're having a good time making it. Is it a cinematographic masterpiece? No. Is it something fun to watch while you're chilling on the couch? Absolutely.
Decent acting, really good CG, meh plot. Don't expect to be blown away or anything, but if you go in just wanting to be entertained with some fun action and cool powers, it delivers.
This a typical mass produced movie by netflix. Nothing special, just had to make another movie with a good idea and typical non-artistic execution. I wonder sometimes how they choose their directors. Is it just who is available from college?
They get great actors and just embarres them with what they have to work with. They are mass producing B movies.

Let me start with the positive: Whoever worked on the VFX in this knew what they were doing. Everything looks sharp, and the colors pop the way a comic book style movie should. I hope more action movies in this genre can add more pop to their color.
What needed work: The story starts off pretty good and I was into it but the third act felt like it came to an end pretty quickly and it feels like there was something missing. I could've totally seen this as a tv show, and I think in that format they could've explored more angles.

If you've got a rough life, quit school, sell drugs, dream of becoming a rap star. That's the message.
This could have been an awesome movie, too bad the wrong people influenced the script and directing.
