    Fun and funny parody about a bumbling superhero amusingly played by Dani Rovira
    Ironical spoof of the American hero, Superman, here in the peculiar Spaniard style. Spanish comic books legend comes alive in this wonderfully entertaining saga of Superhero's life . It portrays Superlópez from being a baby on a doomed and farway planet named Chitón. There a nasty General called Skorba : Ferran Rañe, threatens with his military army to destroy the planet, annhilate towns and its population. While the planet is really threatened, the newborn is sent by his parents : Gonzalo Castro, Portas, to Earth by flying at a pod throughout the deep space. The pod lands on the Spanish countryside where is found, raised and educated by a farmer marriage : Pedro Casablanc, Gracia Olayo, who have a repair garage . Later on, when grown-up, he works as an offfice clerk and decides to practice and expose his superpowers by flying and pulling off impossible missions . Along the way, another native, Maribel Verdú, of his planet attempts to capture him to carry out dark purports . Meantime, Juan gets a job from his old friend Jaime : Julián López, but then his orderly existence in interrupted when there appears Luisa : Alexandra Jimenez, his former flame and old love interest in the University, who is also hired in the company by Jaime. Thing go wrong when both, Jaime and Juán fall for her. "The superhero that this country does not need".

    Diverting superhero movie based on comic books from Jan, with thrills, noisy action, twists, state-of-art FX , lots of humor and an amusing romance . It is an entertaining movie, resulting to be a pretty fun spoof of the known character Superman created by Jerry Siegel and Joe Shuter, here as a botcher hero with several troubles well played by Dani Rovira . A surrealist, hilarious, though uneven comedy, but it is also bold and intelligent, at times. Nice special effects and a script that does not take itself too seriously make this a decent movie. Promising satiric begins well , but ultimately defeated by cliched story and filmmaking, as well as tiring physical comedy. Daniel Rovira gives a sympathetic acting as the ordinary and anonymous office worker undergoing transformation into a special Spanish superhero. He is well accompanied by Alexandra Jimenez as his love interest, developing a triangular love story among Dani Rovira-Alexandra Jimenez-Julián López. Fine support cast formed by important secondaries as Julián López, Pedro Casablanc, Gracia Olayo, Gonzalo de Castro, Ferrán Rañe, among others . Special mention for Maribel Verdú as Agata, an extraterrestrial woman turned in CEO of her own and more notorious cleaner machine company all over the world.

    Here stands out the colorful and brilliant cinematogaphy by Arnau Valls Colomer. As well as a thrilling and catching musical score by Fernando Velazquez. The motion picture was professionally directed by Javier Ruiz Caldera. The movie wion several prizes and nominations such as Cinema Writers Circle Award, Feroz Awards, Gaudi Awards, Sant Jordi and Goya Awards. Caldera is a prestigious editor and filmmaker, especially known for his hilarious films. A comedy expert who has made a few but successful films, such as : Spanish movie, Tres bodas más, Promoción fantasma and another rendition based on a comic book : Anacleto Agente Secreto. Rating 6.5/10. Decent superhero movie and enjoyable comedy.
