Very very predictable, including the post credit scene !!!
Such a frustrating disappointment
There is, somehow, an interesting story here, as well as some good acting. There are also some good scenes
By the time the dramatic fireworks start popping off, each one feels earned.
A Comic Book heist film set in Scotland that keeps the shortbread in the tin where it belongs.Electric Man is a fresh twist on the absurd world of the Comic collector and the greed that can ensue. It's a good first time effort from a lot of the cast and crew and sometimes it shows (as it should) but never enough to annoy. A good story well played out and the film ticks along nicely. Edinburgh looks great as the background and the Scottish humour should be accessible for all.Nice to see something that's actually worth you while.
Two struggling comic nerds are in danger of loosing their shop when after packing up at a fair they discover a rare and valuable comic book. Before they have a chance to turn it in and get a reward there is a plethora of crazy people after them.Imagine the 60's batman TV series and film noir with a Scottish twist. Dastardly villains and gorgeous femme fatales. Toby Manley well cast in the lead and really solid performances all round. There's even a scary cameo from the real life shop owner Gav.It hits way above its lo-budget roots and what's more, in a market full of saccharine superheros its got a heart and its funny too. Great opening title graphics too.
Electric Man is a good, clean caper film based around an ultra-rare and valuable comic book.The film focuses on the adventures of two hapless comic book store owners and their discovery of a rare comic that has accidentally been mixed in with their comics during a comic convention. Trouble then ensues while a ragged band of characters all try to track down and get the comic for themselves.Beautifully shot with some great views of Edinburgh and with some really humorous stand out moments.Definitely one for the family and anyone who just wants a relaxed, non challenging evenings entertainment.
Electric man is a brilliant little film that ticks all the right boxes. It has a strong story and is executed perfectly by the actors and all those behind the camera.The story is well written and full of rib tickling funny bits that make this movie perfect. The cast is also perfect, looking the part and embodying the personalities.The basic outline is, 2 guys own a comic bookshop, they need money to save the shop and happen to find one of the rarest comic books in the world and the chaos begins.There are many little details in this film that works, from the music to details in the comic bookshop and little surprises dotted throughout (if I told you, it'd ruin the fun). So if you do get a chance to catch this amazing film, I highly recommend it, its a fantastic effort and well worth a watch. I plan on getting the DVD when its out just to have in my collection and watch every now and then. Perfect for when you need a laugh and just relax.
