About this movie

What if a child from another world crash-landed on Earth, but instead of becoming a hero to mankind, he proved to be something far more sinister? With Brightburn, the visionary filmmaker of Guardians of the Galaxy and Slither presents a startling, subversive take on a radical new genre: superhero horror.

This film draws its strength in part from its willingness to be a more humbly scaled operation than the tentpoles weighted down by mandates for billion-dollar grosses. The film lacks originality, but is a fairly well-done B-move. SPOILER WARNING: I'm just excited for this "new superhero-horror cinematic universe" that they're building here as revealed in a mid-credits scene. So James Gunn, please make a sequel, we really need to see more.

I really liked the movie and I would like to see more of this style of genre. Personally I think they could have built the characters up more and expanded on the part of the story about him as he begins "taking over the world". As he realizes his goal to become a supreme predator, it might have been good seeing the story go further into it and seeing an epic apocalyptic scale end to his mayhem but they did pretty good all the same.

It was ok, i wouldn't class it as horror - apart from two scenes it was more thriller based. Acting was ok, storyline whilst ok it lacked more depth and back story. I personally would not buy or watch again. But everyone has different tastes in movies/music and that's ok it's just not for me.
