How It Feels

Read from this film's synopsis, keywords and credits, and used to work out what it sits beside.

A pulpy, high-energy clash between a masked vigilante and a world-dominating villain, heavy on noir atmosphere and practical spectacle. It's campy vintage superheroics played with genuine menace and style.
