All Superheroes Must Die

I live in hope that this premise (AVENGERS meet SAW) is either re-tooled and remade by someone with better film-making smarts and better performers, because it’s a good one and an interesting one, and is worthy of better treatment than the bargain-basement type it gets here. Having said that, on the sliding scale this is not *terrible*, with the good-natured performances from the superheroes offsetting their frequent wobbly moments; Remar shows his chops as a dab hand, having great fun with his Luthor-esque villain, but his isolation from the main action makes the film a bit clunky and awkward. Score is largely for the promise I see, rather than the finished result.
