Do not be fooled by the title "Superman, Spiderman or Batman" here. This 5-year-old film comes from Romania and also only has Romanien language from start to finish, so make sure you get subtitles, if you want to understand what is going on. Should not be a surprise that this little movie with its very American title and the bleak European approach in terms of filmmaking scored awards recognition all over the planet. I guess this was the filmmakers' intention and they succeeded. But in my opinion, in terms of quality, they did not succeed. The film entirely relies on the revelation at the end and it's pure tear bait to be honest. Nothing before this final scene really justifies a positive response and an unlikely plot twist like in here cannot save this film. This film needed a lot more substance. That way, it could also have delivered in terms of quality emotional filmmaking. But the way it turns out here, it somehow feels false. I cannot recommend it. Do not be fooled by the IMDb rating. These 11 minutes are not a good watch. Thumbs down.
