Director: Hal Haberman and Jeremy Passmore
Cast: Michael Rapaport, Paul Blackthorne, Josh Peck
Emerging from the confines of invisibility – and escaping from a zero job – Les finds himself with special super powers in this low-budget, high-quality comedy.
Rapaport is excellent as the quite ordinary Les whose involvement in an experimental drug programme renders him, or so he thinks, a super hero.
Which is, clearly, something he must do something about.
It’s a wonderful little film, full of humour and sly observation … and Rapaport has seldom been better.
Star Rating: 4/5
