Seth Rogen proved in Take this Waltz that he can play a character that isn't just Seth Rogen speaking someone else's words, but this is Seth Rogen speaking someone else's words. The rest of the cast is a comic book farce with each character playing type with no dimension. The plot is about as predictable as it could be without a single twist or variation from the formula. Overall, I hope Seth Rogen got a lot of money for this film because aside from that, the film fills no other purpose.
Jim H Super Reviewer. Jan 21, I am assuming that the low score this one received was because people were expecting a more faithful reimagining of their childhood superhero instead of Seth Rogen! Clearly, I am not here to defend the film.

Was this even made by him really? This is nothing like his usually very surreal stuff. It's hard to tell because it's much more aggressive than his usual material. However, while this loud, big budget and utterly mainstream comic book flick is not that good.
I will admit I found enough bits funny and enough bits entertaining to reccommend it. It was built by a Texan gajillionaire for his wife, who promptly got it in a divorce settlement.
