I just love this movie, the concept is absolutely amazing. 8/10

Despite the absolutely brain dead parents, this was so insane and so fun. It’s not even just an evil Superman story, because the aspect of it being a pre-teen somehow makes it so much worse. I wanna kick this kid into the sun out of self-preservation💀 so overall a good movie lmao

average white suburban mom doesnt believe her husband (its really annoying)

Rated: 6.2/10

Stocking pillar content for my WordPress blog, I had to cover this evil-Superman concept. I like this; it’s a wild twist on the superhero origin, even if it leaves potential on the table.

The Director's Eye (What Worked):
• Dunn is super creepy, capturing that detached alien vibe.
• The practical effects rule; the diner scene is terrifying.
• Flipping the iconic farm aesthetic into a horror setting is a cool trick.

The Friction (What Didn't Click for Me):
• We barely see Brandon struggle with morality before going fully evil.
• The parents ignore massive red flags for way too long.

The Verdict:
I like it. Watch for a dark superhero twist. Skip if you need deep arcs.

Good film! Eery and creepy. Would love to see a sequel to see just how powerful he becomes.
