Mercury Man

This film is the best superhero film ever I've seen... it's even far ahead of the dark knight (lmao)...the director's vision is much powerful than any American director...he made a movie that even Christopher Nolan can't do(lol)...my rating for this extraordinary film is 100/10.

I was going into this hoping for a so-bad-its-good type movie, but for the most part it's just plain old bad. There are some of the ridiculous moments I was hoping for, like the horrific CGI superhero rescuing people, random atomic artifacts that give superpowers or blow up, and out-of-left-field plot contrivances, but they are rather sparse in a movie that is essentially Thai Magneto vs. Osama Bin Laden. It drags badly in several places to the point that my friend and I were seriously considering just turning it off, but every time it would drag us back in with a slow motion leap over a random couch or the hero sliding down a rope from the top floor of a burning building on his fire axe. In the end, though, I wouldn't recommend it. If you're looking for a movie to take seriously, this one has too many CGI, plot, and dialogue problems. If you're looking for a fun bad movie, it doesn't have enough of them. It's stranded in that limbo between good and bad that is worse than either. If about an hour of plot dialogue had been cut out of this nearly two hour movie, it would be decent, but as it stands, it's not worth your time. If you're looking for a good bad superhero movie, Condorman or Return of Captain Invincible are better. If you're looking for a good Thai martial arts movie, stick with Tony Jaa. Either way, stay away from this one.

Apart from 1 or 2 good action scenes this movie has nothing to offer! I wasn't expecting anything special! But what I did get was far below average! I can't imagine that this movie will appeal to anyone! The biggest problem of this movie is that it takes itself to seriously! They could have done so if they at least delivered on the action front! This movie could have used more humor which would have improved the badly choreographed action scenes immensely! Also what bothered me a lot wasn't the bad acting or the plot and even the bad choreography! It was the inconsistency of the use of superpowers! At one time he is able to fly and suddenly he can't! At one time he is able to use some form of telekinesis and just like that he isn't able to and just keeps on jumping and kicking like a muay Thai fighter! The very few special fx are OK, but nothing you haven't seen before! My guess is that this movie is made for children! But trust me even children would like this movie! Avoid "Mercury Man" at all costs!

Mercury Man (2006) is a Thai movie I recently watched on Tubi. The storyline follows a fireman who comes into contact with a strange substance while putting out a fire. He transforms into a super hero and finds himself fighting crime as a vigilante when he isn't fighting fires...

This movie is directed by Bhandit Thongdee (The Unborn) and stars Libby Brien (Don't Close Your Blinds), Philip Hersh (Red Cliff), Metinee Kingpayome (Province 77) and Anon Saisangcharn (The Second Site).

The best part of this movie are the women fight scene, particularly at the beginning and end. The dialogue and acting is terrible. The special effects are pretty crazy and many scenes feel like you're watching a bad Spider-Man movie. The super hero elements are not done well but most of the hand to hand combat scenes are entertaining.

Overall this is a below average addition to the action genre that I would score a 4/10 and recommend skipping.

Good basic story with obvious differences if made in America. Improved "Production Value" would have helped the distribution, worldwide!

Note: The Charlton Comic Book Character "Mercury Man" and all the characters of the Mercury Man Adventures in the comics of the early '60's is now owned, copyrights and Trademarked by Producer, Tommy G Warren & Spiderwood Franchise!

Mercury Man and his Robotic friend, "Zoom" are from a far away Galaxy of Mercury and was forced to earth when their space craft malfunctioned after being hit by a Meteorite. He has taken on a human Comic friend, Dr. Erika Penn.
