Based on critics, audiences, awards, box office and buzz. Details below.

Is it for you?

Who'll love it
One for anyone who likes a cape with their popcorn and anyone who wants a laugh. Comic-book roots, so expect big stakes and bigger set pieces. A good follow-up to Hellboy.
The mood
Light and funny.
The pace
Wastes no time getting going, at 21 min. Short enough for a weeknight.
What might put you off
Skip it if you like your stories firmly grounded in the real world.

Superhero Pearl Penalosa juggles the impossible combination of keeping up a social life, searching for love, and battling the forces of evil.
