🎬 MovieFinder's Take
The film brilliantly subverts superhero tropes into a grotesque comedy about mundane burnout. Epic battles take a backseat to bureaucracy, family squabbles, and the hunt for sponsors.
What lingers after the chaos is a surprisingly heartfelt core about legacy and self-acceptance, wrapped in layers of sharp satire. — MovieFinder Editorial
Director: Hitoshi Matsumoto
