The Super (2017)

Val Kilmer, Patrick "The 4400" John Fleuger and the excellent Louisa "Jane Wants A Boyfriend" Krause lead in this novel little thriller that is worth 90 minutes of your attention.

It tells the story of a former police officer who takes a job as maintenance worker within an apartment building. He moves in with his two daughters but quickly begins to have suspicions about the mysterious janitor.

The Super's plot is pretty standard stuff with two twists, one of which you'll see coming within the first few minutes of the film. The cast are great, do a brilliant job and the whole thing looks polished.

Arguably more a thriller than a horror it didn't blow me away in any regard but I can't deny that I did walk away relatively entertained. It's one of those passable movies throughout with a payoff that is satisfactory but just barely.

Likeable Louisa Krause really helped the movie for me and alongside Val Kilmer (Who is back on form) it's the cast that really lift the movie to an above average level.

A harmless 90 minutes of viewing.

The Good:

Some great cinematography

Solid cast

Kilmer is better than he has been in years

The Bad:

Doesn't flow very well

Finale is somewhat eyebrow raising

Fmovies: This movie is cliche, cliche, cliche. I give this movie 2 stars for Val Kilmer (even though he is not that much in this crap movie). This movie is only good if you want to fall asleep quick. Little girl saying daddy hundred of times and if you are trying to run away from a girl, then she is on other end as well (seen this somewhere else - cliche). And the ending is for braindead people who can not think logically. I am glad I did not pay for this crap. Avoid at all costs.

It started well and even up until the last 20 mins then the plot twist happens the ending left me saying omg what a disappointment ending it could have been a decent ending . Not great at all and I give films a chance . On the up side decent acting val Kilmer was ace as the janitor.

The Super fmovies. Worst movie ever for adding Voice Overs that were nowhere near what the actor or actress actually said. You can tell so easily that it makes the producers look stupid!

This mess of a film is a new bench mark low. Poor val Kilmer where did it all go wrong? this movie feels like a cheap 70s badly dubbed Italian horror. and not in a good way it is also hilarious the amount of fake reviews praising this guff always sort your search by "prolific reviewers" that helps to filter out the fake studio reviews.

To say that this movie was awful does not begin to explain how truly bad it really was. Any review praising this most horrible of horrible films was written by a schill. The writer and director should both be blacklisted from Hollywood, and have to personally reimburse everyone who watched it for the price of the rental, and the 1.5 hrs they will never get back. Luckily I was smart enough to not pay to watch this trash; however, I would like reimbursement for loss of time and pain & suffering.
