YOUR RATING

Â“I can shoot ink out of my fingers. ThatÂ’s about it really... Sometimes, in pressure situations, I can shoot it out of my toes.Â”

When Squid Man gets downsized out of the Superhero Society, heÂ’s forced to crash on the couch of his former sidekick (and only friend) Warren. Now he spends his time boozing in a dead end bar, reminiscing about the days when the hero groupies were plentiful and even a second-rater like him could sometimes save the universe.

But when a reporter wants to include him in an upcoming book about superheroes, Squid Man is forced to face the dark mysteries of his past... and the even more unsettling idea that he might actually have a future.

SIlly Movie, Great Concept

In every super-hero universe you have the also-rans, the heroes with silly powers that you're never sure how they made it onto the team roster. This is the story of one such person.

This is not a fast-paced movie, and that works. A writer is looking at Squid Man's life, and the exploration of that allows exploration of the universe. It's sort of fun to look at it through the lens of a third-string hero, and this does not disappoint.

The acting is on point, and there is some excellent casting, and it asks all of the right question while making the right points. If you're looking for a movie that explores the super-hero genre and want to have some fun doing it, this is it.
