Is It Any Good?

Parents say Not yet rated
Kids say (1 ):

This dark, disturbing animated movie is probably best for teen fans of this intense franchise. It's atmospheric, pretty violent, and suspenseful, but not all that fast-paced. The voice acting by veterans Strong and Stormare do elevate it, but there's nothing super-special about this superhero special.

Did we miss something on diversity?

Research shows a connection between kids' healthy self-esteem and positive portrayals in media. That's why we've added a new "Diverse Representations" section to our reviews that will be rolling out on an ongoing basis. You can help us help kids by suggesting a diversity update.
