Cinema Review: Battleship
Far from seeworthy.
A dysfunctional superhero movie has always been on the cards. However popular a hero is, it is always when their edge is sharpened or when their anti-hero personalities appear that they seem at their most interesting. To date, the output on this front has been a mixed bag, ranging from the mediocre (Mystery Men) to crimes against humanity (My Super Ex-Girlfriend). Iron Man of course and his alcoholic playboy alter-ego, Tony Stark debuted this year setting a new standard, while fans await with bated breath for Wolverine to make a solo run and of course Watchmen.
