CGiii Comment

The 'Ultimate Cut' at just under 3 and a half hours...is a marathon.

And the jury is well and truly divided.

The animation is inept and utterly unnecessary - more of an abstraction than an essential component to the story.

It is thoroughly entertaining and, unexpectedly, hard-hitting.

Great escapism.

The(ir) Blurb...

In a gritty and alternate 1985 the glory days of costumed vigilantes have been brought to a close by a government crackdown, but after one of the masked veterans is brutally murdered an investigation into the killer is initiated. The reunited heroes set out to prevent their own destruction, but in doing so discover a deeper and far more diabolical plot.
