> **_He Must Be Crazy About Comic Books_**

A genuinely unique and entertaining genre film. This isn't one of those it's so bad it's good type action movies. It has genuine proper care in it's storytelling and a clear love for the superhero and martial arts genre.

There's a lot of wild tone shifts here as it goes from low budget Raimi superhero action comedy to a darker tale about an older brother becoming a superhero to hunt down the pedophilia ring that abused his brother in the past. But despite the shifts, the film still works because these themes are imbued and timed perfectly to the character development of MirageMan. He himself is low budget, and i really enjoyed that we actually see him try to figure shit out with his limited resources.

They also never tried to go big or be more ambitious with the story. They just stuck with the idea of a man just suddenly putting on a suit trying to do good and how the community reacts around him as he goes from someone that people laughed at, didn't take seriously and even sensationalized, into someone that's finally taken seriously after a final brave heroic act.

A big part of what also makes this work is the brilliant acting of Marko Zaror. Who besides his incredible martial arts ability, also shows his amazing capability to "suit-act", in the film's darker moments and really sells the weight of being the older and more responsible brother.

All of it just makes for an awesome and entertaining riff on the genre and Im glad that Espinosa, Zaror, and Ibieta are still doing stuff together because their works are just so friggin good.
