Paragon Pundit Hero Movie Review #0


Paragon Pundit Hero Movie Review
#0: The Introduction

Hi guys! Paragon Pundit here.

The editor has given the green light to one of my ideas, which is to give a review of hero-themed movies.

The criteria is simple… any movie with a superhero theme to it is subject to review. That could mean your more traditional superhero characters, or new superheroes. These could be new movies, or more likely movies that are already out on DVD and Cable.

I’ll try to give the big stars, a basic summary of the movie, and then rate the overall movie on a 0-5 scale for three criteria.

Capes: The level of superhero quality. Is it really a superhero movie or is it just pretending to be one? 5 Capes means that it’s an ideal superhero flick.

Cheese: The level of stupidity. Do they take film seriously or is it more comic than comic book? 5 Cheeses means it’s the lamest around, so this is NOT the kind of high rating you want to see. The cheeses are American (0), Swiss (1), Mild Cheddar (2), Sharp Cheddar (3), Extra Sharp Cheddar (4), and Limburger (5).

Books: How good is the overall story? Is there a real story or is it more along the lines of an overrated toy commercial or music video? 0 books means that it’s nothing more than an overrated commercial or music video. 5 Books means that there’s an actual story being told.

Oh, by the way, I promise I will try my best to NOT give away any big secrets or spoil the ending. UNLESS the movie really sucks, in which case I would be doing you a favor.

So let’s see how this turns out, and please be sure to let me know what you think of my reviews by posting your thoughts in the comments section.
