“Hungry Gods” review

New costume? Check. Superhero mentor? Check. Government conspiracy to cover up the End of the World? Uh… check? Luke Gillis is barely dragging himself through college. Of course, if he wrote term papers the way he thrashed bank robbers, he’d probably be a doctor by now. His mentor is the Miracle Worker. Yes, that Miracle Worker. Some say he’s more outlaw than hero, but beggars can’t be choosers. Still, Luke must be doing something right. The U.S. Army has invited his alter ego–the dashing speedster Spitball–on a top-secret mission. With the country’s premier superhero team missing-in-action, this could be his big break. If he doesn’t get eaten first…

Another book from the “The Superhero Spectacular Book Bundle”, this one was written well enough that I enjoyed it for the most part, but there wasn’t enough world building to make me want to continue reading the read of the books in the series. Also, the lead character is a bit of a unappealing twit at times, which turned me off from wanting to see good things happen to him.

“The Creator” Review

The Creator: Directed by Gareth Edwards. With John David Washington, Madeleine Yuna Voyles, Gemma Chan, Allison Janney. Against the backdrop of a war between humans and robots with artificial intelligence, a former soldier finds the secret weapon, a robot in the form of a young child.

There’s a lot to like about this film, it has a gorgeous visual pallet, an interesting back story, an amazing world built for the characters, and a premise that really made me want to see it opening day, but sadly I don’t think it delivered on the high expectations. My main complaint is where the plot actually went and the fear to actually address artificial intelligence as something to be both feared and appreciated, but it instead gets wrapped up in an attempt at a multi-layered allusion to racism, colonialism, imperialism, parenthood, and technology. It’s fine to cover a few of those things, but it’s still a bit much for just a two hour film to try to cram in. I think it would have worked better as a 10 part mini series on one of the premium streaming channels to cover each of these items in an hour long episode.

I still suggest seeing this in theaters due to the visual spectacle that really does impress, just know that the plot suggested in the trailers isn’t fully realized in the final product.
